Summary

In order to be managed by alternatives to init, equivalents to systemd
or launchd, watchdogd needs to able to run without daemonizing. Along
with this, it is useful for watchdogd to simply reuse the watchdog
timeout set at startup, so make '-1' a valid timeout to denote reading
the timeout from the driver.
