What type of PR is this?
What this PR does / why we need it:
Adapt description to the latest Commonalities guidelines.
In order to be functional, the provided sinkCredentials must be valid at the moment of sending the events. For quality-on-demand, it implies that the validity of the provided credentials must be longer than the underlying QoS session.
For QoD Provisioning, as expiration of the provisioning is indefinite, if provided, an access token would need to be valid until the provisioning is terminated by the client.
Which issue(s) this PR fixes:
Fixes #385
Special notes for reviewers:
For QoD Provisioning, a mechanism that allows refreshing tokens would be more suitable than just providing a valid access token, so the sentence about that only ACCESS_TOKEN type is supported is deprecated, allowing implementations to support a better mechanism.
