Allow to pass a bearer token to the next tool in a flow

This feature increases the ease of use and user friendliness of wxo skillflows. In the skill flow, the end user may have to log into the skill provider app. With this feature, the end user does not have to log in again in subsequent skill in the same skill flow, as the bearer token obtained in the first skill can be passed to another api call.

    Skill Flows have now been replaced by wxO agentic workflows (flows). Connections are managed for each tool. The flow is used to sequence tools, but does not manage the connections.
