Refresh token can fail with error 400 or error 401 for many reasons, not only invalid refresh_token.
If refresh fails, an error should be logged.
And response body provides useful information.

Example in PlexTraktSync

Before PR:

INFO     OAuth token has expired, refreshing now...
CRITICAL Error running sync command: Trakt authentication error: Unauthorized - OAuth must be provided

After PR:

INFO     OAuth token has expired, refreshing now...
ERROR    401 - Unable to refresh expired OAuth token (invalid_client) Client authentication failed due to unknown
         client, no client authentication included, or unsupported authentication method.
CRITICAL Error running sync command: Trakt authentication error: Unauthorized - OAuth must be provided
INFO     OAuth token has expired, refreshing now...
ERROR    400 - Unable to refresh expired OAuth token (invalid_grant) The provided authorization grant is invalid,
         expired, revoked, does not match the redirection URI used in the authorization request, or was issued to
         another client.
CRITICAL Error running sync command: Trakt authentication error: Unauthorized - OAuth must be provided

Walkthrough

The exception handling in the refresh_token method of the TokenAuth class within trakt/api.py was updated to catch both OAuthException and BadRequestException. The error logging was enhanced to provide more detailed diagnostic information, including error messages and HTTP status codes.

Changes

File(s) Change Summary
trakt/api.py Expanded exception handling in refresh_token to include BadRequestException and improved error logging with detailed messages including HTTP status, error, and description.

Poem

A token refresh, a cautious hop,
Now catches errors that before would drop.
With logs more clear and messages bright,
Troubles are spotted in the darkest night.

Code hops ahead, with errors in sight!
