Add a token_version counter to the User model that gets embedded in JWTs and checked on every request. When Redis is not configured, sign-out and password change now increment token_version in the DB, causing all previously issued tokens to be rejected.
Changes:
User model: add token_version column (BigInteger, default 0)
auth.py: is_valid_token checks token_version against DB when no Redis
auth.py: invalidate_token increments token_version when no Redis
auths.py: embed token_version in JWT at all token creation points
auths.py: password change now invalidates prior tokens
oauth.py: embed token_version in OAuth callback JWT
oauth.py: back-channel logout uses token_version when no Redis
Migration: add token_version column to user table
