Cognito based credentials finally refreshing

It turns out I had it wrong all along. See here's the flow:

• Cognito is mapping an identity to a STS based role
• We need to ask Cognito to refresh the credentials directly (not just the provider refresh)

Now, there is some debate as to whether this part of the SDK is obeying the refresh contract. So, for now I have this construct in the 'flush to kinesis' flow:

    if (self.credentialsProvider.expiration == nil |  self.credentialsProvider.expiration.timeIntervalSinceNow < AppDelegate.CREDENTIAL_REFRESH_WINDOW_SEC) {

            let delegate = AuthorizeUserDelegate(parentController: self.viewController)

            delegate.launchGetAccessToken()

            NSLog("refreshd Cognito credentials")

  }

This winds up trigger the usual Cognito flow. And if a persistent identity is in the app, then this finally does the right thing. Simulator based transmit now does token refresh reliably over many hours, or many versions of STS tokens.

Also, this version of the code is updated based on the release versions of Xcode 7, iOS 9 and watchOS 2. Everything is running fairly smoothy. There are still a couple of areas I'm investigating:

• The WCSession:sendMessage seems to get wedged in a certain sequence. Watch sends a message, is waiting for a reply, phone gets message, then watch goes to sleep. The phone has processed the message and is blocked on the reply to the watch. This doesn't seem to get unwedged any way other than waiting for a 2 or 5 minute timeout.
• This particular code does get into an initial block state if the phone is locked. This looks to be something where the accelerometer sensor needs to check with the phone to see if user has granted access to sensor.

Both of the above are a bit more than minor inconveniences. The first means that even IF living with the watch app going to sleep often, you still can't reliably transfer a bunch of data to the phone using the sendMessage method. The second means it is not clean for starting the app on the watch when the phone is locked or out of range. Maybe there is a reason. But really, we are at a point where getting the sensor data out of the watch for anywhere close to near-realtime processing isn't yet realized.
