net/ipv6: set expires in rt6_add_dflt_router().

Pass the duration of a lifetime (in seconds) to the function
rt6_add_dflt_router() so that it can properly set the expiration time.

The function ndisc_router_discovery() is the only one that calls
rt6_add_dflt_router(), and it will later set the expiration time for the
route created by rt6_add_dflt_router(). However, there is a gap of time
between calling rt6_add_dflt_router() and setting the expiration time in
ndisc_router_discovery(). During this period, there is a possibility that a
new route may be removed from the routing table. By setting the correct
expiration time in rt6_add_dflt_router(), we can prevent this from
happening. The reason for setting RTF_EXPIRES in rt6_add_dflt_router() is
to start the Garbage Collection (GC) timer, as it only activates when a
route with RTF_EXPIRES is added to a table.
