[Nfd-dev] Proposed NDN spec change

[Junxiao Shi]

Hi Jeff

FreshnessPeriod is a nonNegativeInteger, whose upper bound is 2^64-1.
This upper bound value gives a FreshnessPeriod that is millions of years,
which is practically "always fresh".
It's unnecessary to have a special FreshnessPeriod value to indicate
"always fresh".

Yours, Junxiao
