New issue 134: Make it a warning when the auth_time value resulting from a max_age request is not in the expected range

Michael Jones:

Please change it from being an error to a warning when the auth_time value resulting from a max_age request is not in the expected range.  Also, if we're doing anything in the max_age=1 test to detect whether a reauthentication occurred, please make the lack of a reauthentication a warning condition, rather than an error.

It still will be an error if no auth_time claim is present in the ID Token when max_age is used.

This is per the conversation with Google documented in the thread [Openid-specs-ab] Conformance and Max Auth Age.
