add support for string-encoded `expires_in` for Azure AD compatibility While [RFC 6749 Section 5.1](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6749#section-5.1) describes `expires_in` as an integer, Microsoft Azure AD returns this value as a string (e.g., `"3600"` instead of `3600`). This non-compliant behavior has been a [known issue since at least 2022](https://feedback.azure.com/d365community/idea/7772fd95-26e6-ec11-a81b-0022484ee92d), yet remains unresolved. Given that Microsoft Azure AD is one of the largest OAuth 2.0 identity providers globally, rejecting their token responses due to this technical violation creates a barrier to adoption. Many enterprise applications depend on Azure AD for authentication, making this workaround necessary for real-world compatibility. This change implements a lenient deserializer that accepts both the standard integer format and Azure's string format, ensuring the library works with RFC-compliant providers while maintaining compatibility with Azure. The fix is transparent to users - existing code continues to work without modification - and adds test coverage for both formats. fixes ramosbugs#191
