Bug: OAuth 2.0 State Parameter fails with Pipe Delimiters (RFC 6749 Non-Compliance)

https://accounts.zoho.com/oauth/v2/auth?response_type=code
    &client_id=<client_id>
    &scope=<scope>
    &redirect_uri=<redirect_uri>
    &access_type=offline
    &state=<state_value>

// Instead of using pipes as delimiters:
state = csrf_token + "|" + user_id + "|" + redirect_path;
// ❌ This breaks Zoho's authorization flow

// Developers must use alternative approaches:
state = csrf_token + "_SEP_" + user_id + "_SEP_" + redirect_path;
// or
state = base64_encode(json_encode({"csrf": token, "user": id, "path": path}));
// or
state = csrf_token; // Store other data server-side keyed by CSRF token
