kernel-netlink: Allow to override xfrm_acq_expires value
When using auto=route, current xfrm_acq_expires default value
implies that tunnel can be down for up to 165 seconds, if
other peer rejected first IKE request with an AUTH_FAILED or
NO_PROPOSAL_CHOSEN error message. These error messages are
completely normal in setups where another application
pushes configuration to both strongSwans without waiting
for acknowledgment that they have updated their configurations.
This patch allows strongswan to override xfrm_acq_expires default
value by setting charon.plugins.kernel-netlink.xfrm_acq_expires in
strongswan.conf.
