[oe] [meta-networking][PATCH] vpnc: Reduce lifetime value to widely-compatible value

From: Will Page <Will.Page at ni.com>

Current proposed lifetime value (2147483 seconds, which equates to
MAXINT ms, or ~25 days) is rejected by Fortigate vpn devices because
"peer SA proposal does not match local policy".  It seems default
policy for these devices constrains lifetime where similar VPN devices
don't.

Reducing the lifetime from its current value to 28800 (exactly 8 hours)
causes it to start working with fortigate devices.
