Function refreshAccessToken

Renews the access token using the refresh token

Uses the stored refresh token to obtain a new access token when the current one expires. Dynamically imports the token refresh module to avoid circular dependencies.

This function:

• Retrieves the current refresh token
• Makes a request to Spotify's token endpoint
• Updates stored tokens with the new access token
• Schedules the next refresh based on expiry
• Handles API errors with appropriate logging

// Refresh the token before making an important API call
const refreshSucceeded = await refreshAccessToken();
if (refreshSucceeded) {
  // Token is fresh, proceed with API call
  const result = await performCriticalOperation();
} else {
  // Refresh failed, re-authenticate
  showLoginPrompt("Your session has expired. Please log in again.");
}
