roshan-ramees opened a new pull request, #70980:
URL: https://github.com/apache/airflow/pull/70980
### What?
Implements `FabAuthManager.refresh_user` so `JWTRefreshMiddleware` reissues
the `_token` cookie on every request when the user is authenticated.
### Why?
`JWTRefreshMiddleware` (added in #55506, 3.1.4) drives sliding-refresh of
the UI JWT by calling `auth_manager.refresh_user(user)`.
`BaseAuthManager.refresh_user` is a no-op by default. `KeycloakAuthManager`
overrides it — `FabAuthManager` does not. On FAB deployments (the default), the
silent-refresh path does nothing, so long-open browser tabs burst 401s from
concurrent `/ui/*` and `/api/v2/*` polls every `[api_auth] jwt_expiration_time`
interval.
Symptom on our prod (Airflow 3.1.7 + FAB + Google OAuth):
```
[error] JWT token is not valid: Signature has expired
[airflow.api_fastapi.auth.managers.base_auth_manager]
loc=base_auth_manager.py:107
INFO: - "GET /ui/dashboard/dag_stats HTTP/1.1" 401 Unauthorized

HTTP/1.1" 401 Unauthorized

HTTP/1.1" 401 Unauthorized
```
Related open issue: #57065.
### How?
Return the current user for authenticated (non-anonymous) FAB sessions.
`deserialize_user` above already re-fetches the user from DB by `token["sub"]`,
so the object is fresh — returning it is safe and adds only one HS512 sign per
request (sub-ms).
For anonymous / no user, return `None` to skip the reissue.
### Tests
Three unit tests covering: authenticated user → returns user; anonymous user
→ returns None; no user → returns None.
