Session timeout modals

Available from Jadu Central 4.2

Session timeout modals alert a user when their session is due to expiry. These are shown to Jadu Central Control Center users and front end users.

The modal will warn the user when there are two minutes left of their session, and provide a countdown to sign out from 59 seconds.
