Quota check on authentication end-point

Why

In order to properly protect the authentication end-point the check on quota was added. When an application now tries to request to many tokens it will be blocked and ensures that all users have a good experience.

How

The quota check is automatically active.

Action

There is only action needed if you receive a 429 response in your application. At that point you are reaching the maximum quota and you need to check the amount of authentication requests.
A token has a lifetime of two hours so in general only every two hours a token needs to be requested.
