If you want there is also the possibility to find comfortable seats in a room outside the airport that is usually open and free from people. The place is a bar/caffe just outside the airport in front of the bus station.
I work for security at the airport. Your boarding pass to gain access through to security will only be valid if used on the same date as your travelling, so going through the night before is a no no.
Yes, you can stay overnight as long as you pass through security. Be sure to have your ticket present. However, since you have already passed security, you should have no problem. I’ve done it before.
Here’s a link with others who have as well:
