Generate a longer agentk token by default
What does this MR do?
Increases the length of newly created tokens from 20 to 50 characters to make it possible to use the token prefix as a unique-enough key for rate limiting while keeping the suffix fully secret.
We are probably also going to switch to a digest-based token, but that is a breaking change and needs just a bit more planning, so it will be a separate MR.
