Research direction

Start with examples/bash/authentication/example.sh at line 43 and inspect the session-token check described in the issue. Correct the check so valid session tokens are not reported as errors, then verify the authentication example no longer prints the failure message for a valid response.

Description

https://github.com/Tripletex/tripletex-api2/blob/9e0a670138aefa845e9e674a0d5ec72558f23ef6/examples/bash/authentication/example.sh#L43

This tests for the presence of a dash in the returned sessiontoken, but since sessiontokens don't have dashes, all valid requests for sessiontokens are reported as "failed"
