GitHub Apps have the ability to expose refresh_tokens when identifying and authorizing users using either the device or web flow.

This refresh token is valid for 6 months and can be exchanged for a fresh access token (valid for 8 hours) and a new refresh token.

This PR exposes the refresh_token that is returned when using the OAuth flow with a GitHub App.
