mod_http_oauth2: Reduce authorization code validity time to 2 minutes
RFC 6749 states
> A maximum authorization code lifetime of 10 minutes is RECOMMENDED.
So 15 minutes was way too long. I was thinking 5 minutes at first but
since this should generally be instant, I settled on 2 minutes as a
large guesstimate on how slow it might be on slow links.
