Policy limits requests now retry once with a forced token refresh after a 401 error

What

The request that fetches policy limits now goes through a wrapper that can force a refresh of the OAuth authentication token and retry the request if it first fails with a 401 (unauthorized) error. Every result returned now also carries a retriedAfter401 flag indicating whether this retry happened.

Why

This should reduce spurious failures when fetching policy limits with an expired token, by automatically refreshing the token and retrying once instead of surfacing the authentication error.
