Remove misleading self-issued language that seems to imply that nonce is optional

Issue #1266 resolved
Michael Jones created an issue

In bullet 8 of https://openid.net/specs/openid-connect-core-1_0.html#SelfIssuedValidation, the language “If a nonce value was sent in the Authentication Request“ is misleading, and should be removed. Nonce is already required for the Implicit flow at https://openid.net/specs/openid-connect-core-1_0.html#ImplicitAuthRequest - including for response_type=id_token.

This problem was first identified in issue #1265.
