Support access tokens that don't expire #175

Users should be able to generate and hand out access tokens via the DataHub UI (like GitHub's personal access tokens). Those tokens should be valid until the user revokes them.

Lets users authorize apps ahead of time instead of having to be present at the point of first use. Useful for supporting extra lazy client apps that don't or can't ask for user input.
