The way Nuxt handles environment variables is weird. Document this to help others from not falling into its pitfalls.

Configuration
Quoting
Environment variables are parsed using destr which contain arbitrary unspecified and undocumented rules for converting strings to data. If an environment input looks like JSON it'll most likely be parsed as JSON and my cause a type missmatch error to be reported. To avoid strings being converted into other unintended values put the value into " marks. Depending on your configuration environment you may have to double up the quotation marks and/or use escapes.
Environment Variables
NUXT_SESSION_ROTATES_TIMEOUT
Time in seconds before a session need to be rotated over into a new session. When an endpoint using a session is hit after the session rotates timeout but before the session is discarded a new session is created as the successor with a new rotates and discard timeout. The old session then marked to expire in 10 seconds any requests using the old session will result in a 403 Forbidden with the message the session has been taken after the expiry.
NUXT_SESSION_DISCARD_TIMEOUT
Time in seconds before a session is deleted from the client and server, resulting in the user having to authenticate again if the session wasn't rotated over into a new session before this timeout.
This should be several times greater that NUXT_SESSION_ROTATES_TIMEOUT.
