Validate token methods should not require authentication

[marioaburto-alation]

Methods validate_refresh_token() and validate_access_token() should not require the user to pass in a refresh token in order to instantiate the Alation class since these endpoints do not require an access token in the header. Users should be able to call on these methods without first authenticating into Alation.

@marioaburto-alation does changing validate_ssl in Alation class takes part in calling this endpoint? Cuz I've found that sometimes when using poetry for internal alation instance it doesnt works event if it has valid cert (but maybe it's poetry fault?)

hi @laskmat , updating validate_ssl with the path to a valid cert should work and will take part when calling these endpoints, as well of the rest of the endpoints. I have not tried using poetry in the past so I can't say if poetry affects this functionality or not but we have tested passing in a path to a valid cert and it does work. I will be closing this issue but feel free to create another GitHub issue if you are having issues with the cert.
