fix(serve-http): make OAuth /token rate limit configurable via env

Adds GBRAIN_OAUTH_TOKEN_RATE_LIMIT_MAX and
GBRAIN_OAUTH_TOKEN_RATE_LIMIT_WINDOW_MS to tune the /token
client_credentials limiter (default unchanged: 50 req / 15 min).
Invalid, zero, or negative values fall back to the default.

Takeover of #2501 (mechanical rebase onto master after #2625 shifted
the surrounding context in serve-http.ts). Fixes #2463.
