Description

All error handler callbacks should include the original error message in the parameters.
E.g, the _expired_token_callback takes e.jwt_header, e.jwt_data as parameters, thus the original error message is lost when setting the expired_token_loader.
Either the entire error should be set as parameter, I.e. _expired_token_callback(e: Exception) or alternatively you could add the error message as a string _expired_token_callback(e.jwt_header, e.jwt_data, str(e)).
The same applies for all error handlers which do not include the error message.

Research direction

Start by locating _expired_token_callback, expired_token_loader, and the other error-handler callback definitions and their tests. Review each callback signature and verify that the original error message remains available through every handler; done means all handlers that currently omit it expose it consistently.
