In order for all the error return values to be distributed on the same
side (instead of surrounding the success error code), the return values
for errors other than a simple verification failure are switched to
negative values. This way the result of the jwt_verify converter can be
compared strictly to 1 as well relative to 0 (any <= 0 return value is
an error).
The documentation was also modified to discourage conversion of the
return value into a boolean (which would definitely not work).
