This PR updates the "Private Key JWT Auth for Service Accounts" documentation to explicitly clarify the relationship between the exp (expiration) and iat (issued at) claims. Previously, the documentation didn't make it clear what happens if a developer sets an exp claim far into the future. This update clarifies that while the exp value is strictly enforced, the iat claim takes precedence if the exp is set to more than 1 hour in the future (i.e., ZITADEL will reject the JWT once the iat is older than 1 hour, regardless of the exp time). **Changes included:** Updated the description of the exp claim in the JWT payload section to highlight the 1-hour iat limit enforcement.
