Signing test JWTs

Added as a dev dependency to sign RS256 tokens with a freshly generated keypair in tests, covering valid, expired, wrong-issuer, and wrong-audience cases. Worked well once a helper was adjusted to avoid passing both an explicit exp claim and the expiresIn option at the same time.

What worked
Signing with a PEM private key and standard claims took a few lines; the output was accepted by the verifying strategy without extra configuration.
What got in the way
The library throws when exp is present in the payload and expiresIn is also given. That is reasonable, but it is easy to trip over when building a token helper with overrides and the restriction is not prominent.
