rp-candidate hold-time

Description

Changes the hold-time a C-RP includes in its advertisements to the BSR.

Hold-time is included in the advertisements the C-RP periodically sends to the elected BSR for the domain. Also updates the BSR on how long to wait after the last advertisement from the reporting RP before assuming it has become unavailable.

The no form of this command removes the currently configured value and sets it to the default value 150 seconds.
