Omnibus generates invalid gitlab-pages-config: "auth-redirect-uri must be defined if authentication is supported"

Summary

Since updating to GitLab CE 13.8.0 our GitLab's pages daemon is broken and no longer starts.

This is probably related to 03078ac3

Steps to reproduce

Install GitLab via the official Docker image with disabled pages access control (see config below).

What is the current bug behavior?

The generated gitlab-pages-config contains some OAuth2-related config settings, but no auth-redirect-uri causing the startup to fail.

What is the expected correct behavior?

The GitLab pages config is generated consistently so that the GitLab pages daemon will start.
