test: enhance security middleware and token validation tests

- Refactored security middleware tests with improved type safety and mock configurations
- Updated token validation tests with more precise token generation and expiration scenarios
- Improved input sanitization and request validation test coverage
- Added comprehensive test cases for error handling and security header configurations
- Enhanced test setup with better environment and secret management
