Enhance GitHupAppCredentials to use JWTToken instead AppInstallation Token

XMLWordPrintable

      Currently GitHubAppCredentials is generating JWT token from the AppInstallationToken, I think only in few exceptional cases AppInstallationToken is needed.

      We need to convert the logic to use the JWT token itself to support it across multiple organizations. 

      Given there are no issues with this implementation, this could solve other issues like JENKINS-64662 and JENKINS-62220.
