Add support for authentication with API tokens as described in [Generate an API Access Token][1]. The authentication follows RFC6749 (OAuth 2.0). If the user is set to 'API_TOKEN' the password is interpreted as token string and instead of setting the login credentials of the pyvcloud client, the client's rehydrate_from_token function is called with the optional argument is_jwt_token=True.
