Breaking changes

For JWT authentication, support new disconnect_after_expire option. When enabled, the client will be disconnected after the JWT token expires.

This option is enabled by default, so the default behavior is changed. Previously, the clients with actual JWTs could connect to the broker and stay connected even after the JWT token expired. Now, the client will be disconnected after the JWT token expires.

To preserve the previous behavior, set disconnect_after_expire to false.
