Allow to set expiry of the oauth token or set higher defaults

[Haehnchen]

The Basic oauth process should be longer then the provided 4 weeks, basically the cli is designed for agents and i dont want the configured agent to run into issues after every 4 weeks.

Current Default

sentry auth login
ℹ Starting authentication...
[...]
✔ Authentication successful!
Token expires in: 4 weeks and 1 day

Workaround

Use api token, with more expire time.

sentry auth login --token=*

Hey @Haehnchen!

from your description, looks like you're getting the token from sentry auth login. That token expires, because it's intended to be used by the CLI internally, and it will be refreshed automatically.

If you want to us the CLI without the need of logging in and/or in an agent setup that may involve a VM, sandbox or a thing like that, you would need to create a Personal/Organization token from Sentry UI, as we don't have a sentry token command to create them (we'll do in the next release, see #1110).

To create the token in Sentry's UI:
Sentry UI -> Settings -> Personal Tokens -> Create new tokens

by default, tokens don't have an expiration date, so you should be good to go!

and it will be refreshed automatically.

Thank you, for this info. But it would be nice to reword "Token expires"; its then an "Access Token". Given this it would be clear about the refresh workflow, but you should better completely drop the wording about confusion expiring then.

Agree @Haehnchen , we'll change wording! thanks for the heads up.
