Prevent small risk of Token overwrite (encode#9754)

* Fix encode#9250: Prevent token overwrite and improve security

- Fix key collision issue that could overwrite existing tokens
- Use force_insert=True only for new token instances
- Replace os.urandom with secrets.token_hex for better security
- Add comprehensive test suite to verify fix and backward compatibility
- Ensure existing tokens can still be updated without breaking changes

* Fix code style: remove trailing whitespace and unused imports

* Fix encode#9250: Prevent token overwrite with minimal changes

- Add force_insert=True to Token.save() for new objects to prevent overwriting existing tokens
- Revert generate_key method to original implementation (os.urandom + binascii)
- Update tests to work with original setUp() approach
- Remove verbose comments and unrelated changes per reviewer feedback

* Fix flake8 violations: remove extra blank lines and trailing whitespace

* Update tests/test_authtoken.py
