Input Constrained Devices

Hi Mike,

I got some comments around the user_code and its expiration which are not clear 
in the specs.

The user_code is not a one time use right? It seems to me that the user should 
be able to use the code more than once until the authorization is completed. 
Once the authorization is successful then the user_code should not be valid 
anymore.

The spec isn't clear about what if the user_code expires while the client is 
going through the authorization flow? Again, in my mind, the user_code is valid 
until the authorization is successful and if it expires any time before that 
then we should not continue with the authorization and tell the user that the 
user_code has expired. And if the user finished authorization and the user_code 
expires BEFORE the token is redeemed, then the 'expired_token' response should 
be sent back from the token endpoint.

Thanks,
...
