Add Custom Claims to JWT for Google Service Account OAuth2

Demonstrates how add custom claims to the JWT when getting a Google API OAuth2 access token using a JSON service account private key. Lua

local chilkat = require("chilkat")

-- This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
-- See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

-- First load the JSON key into a string.
local fac = chilkat.FileAccess.new()
local jsonKey = fac:read_entire_text_file("qa_data/googleApi/ChilkatTest-ab2ecd52ef98.json", "utf-8")
if not fac.last_method_success then
    print(fac.last_error_text)
    return
end

-- A JSON private key should look like this:
