Two Token Service queries

Hi,

Two simple queries on the Knox Token Service:

a) The "token_type" that is returned is "Bearer ". The extra space at the
end looks a bit odd - is it a typo?

https://github.com/apache/knox/blob/master/gateway-service-knoxtoken/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/gateway/service/knoxtoken/TokenResource.java#L50

b) There is a semantic mismatch between the JWTokenAuthority interface and
the default implementation of DefaultTokenAuthorityService. Namely, the
interface has a method:

JWT issueToken(Principal p, String audience, long l) throws
TokenServiceException;

whereas the DefaultTokenAuthorityService implements this method as:

public JWTToken issueToken(Principal p, String algorithm, long expires)

https://github.com/apache/knox/blob/master/gateway-server/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/gateway/services/token/impl/DefaultTokenAuthorityService.java#L83

I think probably the interface is incorrect here, and instead it should be
"algorithm" instead of "audience". WDYT?

Colm.
