Deezer User | Token

When expires_in is near zero (e.g., after 23 hours), call:

GET https://connect.deezer.com/oauth/access_token.php
  ?app_id=APP_ID
  &secret=APP_SECRET
  &refresh_token=REFRESH_TOKEN

Response: new access_token, expires, and possibly new refresh_token.

Deezer may rotate refresh tokens. Always store the latest one.

Auto-refresh logic (pseudo):

if (Date.now() >= tokenExpiry - 5*60*1000) 
  const newTokens = await refreshDeezerToken(refreshToken);
  saveTokens(newTokens);
