mod_http_oauth2: Add option for specifying TTL of registered clients
Meant to simplify configuration, since TTL vs ignoring expiration is
expected to be the main thing one would want to configure.
Unsure what the implications of having unlimited lifetime of clients
are, given no way to revoke them currently, short of rotating the
signing secret.
On one hand, it would be annoying to have the client expire.
On the other hand, it is trivial to re-register it.

::: {.alert .alert-warning} This module is an experiment about a more graceful shutdown process. Graceful shutdown has now been implemented in Prosody trunk and will be part 0.12. See [issue #1225](https://issues.prosody.im/1225) for details. ::: Why === When shutting down, a number of sessions, connections and other things are teared down. Due to all these things happening very quickly, sometimes e.g. client unavailable notifications don't make it to all remote contacts because the server-to-server connections are teared down just after. How === This module works by breaking the shutdown process into separate steps with a brief pause between them. It goes something like this 1. Stop accepting new client connections. 2. Close all client connections. 3. Fire event for everything else. 4. Tell `net.server` to quit the main loop. 5. ??? 6. Still here? Kill itself.
