ℹ️ Issue
Closes #343
📝 Description
Added refresh token functionality
Briefly list the changes made to the code:
Updated backend POST /auth/refresh to return the refreshed idToken and a refreshToken (and to set the refresh_token cookie, using Cognito’s rotated token when available).
Added frontend auto-refresh behavior in bcan/frontend/src/api.ts: on a 401 (except /auth/refresh), it calls /auth/refresh once and retries the original request.
Adjusted backend JWT guards to throw UnauthorizedException / ForbiddenException instead of silently returning false, so the frontend can reliably detect expired/invalid access tokens.
✔️ Verification
Backend tests plus running frontend
