Patreon login doesn't work/setup is not intuitive #6702

Describe the bug
While trying to set up the Patreon social integration, I realised that the required fields of Consumer Key and Consumer Secret don't seem to apply to the data that Patreon provides with its API - or at least the terminology is confusing. But outside of that, the default scopes that it seems to be presenting Patreon with upon setup are not part of Patreon's API, and will always error out with an "Invalid Scope" unless manually replaced with the correct ones. If this social integration is working and I'm mistaken, it is missing documentation that would definitely make it easier on new users.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Go to the social integration settings.
  2. Click on the Patreon integration.
  3. Enter the Client ID and Secret into the Key and Secret fields (assuming that's what you're supposed to use)
  4. Get an invalid_scope error when trying to sign in

Expected behavior
Should allow users to log in via Patreon.
