Description

The google auth backend hard-codes the https scheme into its redirect urls and so doesn't work with http. This happens because the redirect url sets the `_scheme` parameter to `https`. I I see that this change was made to allow google auth to work when airflow is run behind a proxy, but I think this fix isn't correct. Instead, proxies should be configured to set `X-Forwarded-Proto` to `https`, and Flask will set the scheme correctly.
