Header Types for Common Access Token

This module provides the header structure and related types for Common Access Tokens.

Headers in Common Access Tokens are divided into two categories:

• Protected Headers: These headers are integrity-protected and are part of the signature input.
• Unprotected Headers: These headers are not integrity-protected and can be modified without invalidating the signature.

The most important header parameters are:

• Algorithm (alg): Specifies the cryptographic algorithm used to secure the token.
• Key ID (kid): Identifies the key used to secure the token.
