Thanks for this PR! Could you resolve conflicts :)
The defualt cost of 10 can be very prohibitive when the server is hit with more than ~10 simultaneous requests and only one CPU is available

The default bcrypt hashing cost can be quite problematic when serving many requests at once. Depending on token expiration times and other security considerations, lowering the cost can be a valid fix. This PR adds the
token_hash_costto all TokenDB configs (redis, GCS, LevelDB). Note that the level db config was a simple string previously, I had to change it to a struct with{path: string, token_hash_cost: int}.Note that this PR is built on top of #374.
