libmsc: move subscriber expiration timer T3212 to libvlr

Since the split of OsmoNiTB, OsmoMSC does not deal with the radio
access network directly. Therefore the only purpose of T3212 is to
control subscriber expiration in the local VLR. The timeout value
indicated in System Information Type 3 needs to be configured
separately in the BSC/RNC.

This means that we don't need to store it in deci-hours anymore.
Let's move T3212 to the group of VLR specific timers, so it can
be configured and introspected using the generic 'timer' command,
and deprecate the old '[no] periodic location update' command.

It should be also noted that in the old code subscriber expiration
timeout was actually set to twice the T3212 value plus one minute.
After this change, we apply the configured value 'as-is', but
keep the old behaviour for 'periodic location update' command.
