Optimized JSON deserialization in Authenticator.cs and WithingsClient.cs by using ReadAsStreamAsync and JsonSerializer.DeserializeAsync. This reduces memory allocations by avoiding the creation of large intermediary strings for the response body. In WithingsClient.cs, HttpCompletionOption.ResponseHeadersRead was also added to further optimize memory usage during streaming. Benchmarks showed an 11% reduction in memory allocations for the authentication flow.


PR created automatically by Jules for task 13996960534206587761 started by @antarr

This change improves performance and reduces memory allocations by
deserializing JSON directly from the HTTP response stream instead of
reading it into a string first.

Changes:
- Replaced `ReadAsStringAsync` with `ReadAsStreamAsync` in `Authenticator.cs` and `WithingsClient.cs`.
- Replaced synchronous `JsonSerializer.Deserialize` with asynchronous `JsonSerializer.DeserializeAsync`.
- Added `HttpCompletionOption.ResponseHeadersRead` to `SendAsync` in `WithingsClient.cs` for more efficient streaming.
- Improved error handling for null responses in `Authenticator.cs`.

Measured Improvement (based on local benchmark of `GetAccessToken`):
- Allocations: Reduced from ~5232 bytes to ~4633 bytes per iteration (~11% reduction).
- Execution time remains efficient at ~21 us per iteration.
