#' Fetch a token for the given scopes
#'
#' This is a rather magical function that calls a series of concrete
#' credential-fetching functions, each wrapped in a `tryCatch()`.
#' `token_fetch()` keeps trying until it succeeds or there are no more functions
#' to try. See the `vignette("how-gargle-gets-tokens")` for a full description
#' of `token_fetch()`.
#'
#' @seealso [cred_funs_list()] reveals the current registry of
#'   credential-fetching functions, in order.
#'
#' @inheritParams credentials_user_oauth2
#' @param ... Additional arguments passed to all credential functions.

#' @return An [`httr::Token`][httr::Token-class] (often an instance of something
#'   that inherits from `httr::Token`) or `NULL`.
