I did a small test of this patch series with a Keycloak 17 as provider.

For the test I added a `Client Scope` in the realm with the predefined
mapper `groups'. The user info can then be checked under Realm -> Client
Scope -> Evaluate -> (select user, evaluate) -> Generated User Info


Tests done:

1)
* no groups defined in PVE
* realm configured with:
  - Groups Claim: `groups`
  - Overwrite Groups: true
* user in keycloak configured with groups: group1, group2, group3
* login with user
* no groups created and/or assigned to the user (missing 3 groups)

2)
* group1 defined in PVE
* realm configured with:
  - Groups Claim: `groups`
  - Overwrite Groups: true
* user in keycloak configured with groups: group1, group2, group3
* login with user
* user was assigned the group1 (missing 2 others)

3)
* group2 defined in PVE
* realm configured with:
  - Groups Claim: `groups`
  - Overwrite Groups: true
* user in keycloak configured with groups: group1, group2, group3
* login with user
* group was switched from group1 to group2

4)
* group1, group2 defined in PVE
* realm configured with:
  - Groups Claim: `groups`
  - Overwrite Groups: false
* user in keycloak configured with groups: group1, group3
* login with user
* group1 was added, group2 was kept

5)
* group1, group2 defined in PVE
* realm configured with:
  - Groups Claim: none (default)
  - Overwrite Groups: <any>
* user in keycloak configured with groups: group1, group2, group3
* login with user
* no changes


It seemed to work reliably once Keycloak was configured correctly. One
thing that was confusing, even with `Overwrite Groups` no groups are set
if they aren't already configured on the PVE cluster.

I haven't tested the character replacement yet.
