Internal and external auth cache 5 minutes.

The mediapreview error-handling refactor dropped the outer
asyncio.wait_for around preview generation. Pool-internal timeouts only
bound individual stages (idle-worker wait, worker request, OO HTTP
calls); queueing on top of them let requests run far past 10s and
eventually return 200 instead of 503. Wrap both generate paths in
wait_for(PREVIEW_TIMEOUT) again — cancellation propagates correctly:
the pool dispatcher drops cancelled futures, and the OnlyOffice manager
cancels orphaned conversion tasks.
