DDNS forced updates working as intended

[RMerlin]

Some people expressed doubts that ddns updates were properly being enforced after a certain number of days (configured on the webui). Since for a rare occasion I actually broke a month of uptime on my primary router...

Sep 19 03:17:34 watchdog: Forced DDNS update (after 21 days)
Sep 19 03:17:34 rc_service: watchdog 1130:notify_rc restart_ddns

I can confirm that forced update interval for DDNS works well - I have configured 3 days:

admin@RT-AX88U:/tmp# grep restart\ ddns syslog.log*
syslog.log-1:Sep  7 08:18:09 START_service-event: started [restart ddns]
syslog.log-1:Sep  7 08:18:10 START_service-event-end: started [restart ddns]
syslog.log-1:Sep 10 08:18:09 START_service-event: started [restart ddns]
syslog.log-1:Sep 10 08:18:10 START_service-event-end: started [restart ddns]
syslog.log-1:Sep 13 08:18:09 START_service-event: started [restart ddns]
syslog.log-1:Sep 13 08:18:10 START_service-event-end: started [restart ddns]
syslog.log:  Sep 16 08:19:44 START_service-event: started [restart ddns]
syslog.log:  Sep 16 08:19:44 START_service-event-end: started [restart ddns]
syslog.log:  Sep 19 08:19:49 START_service-event: started [restart ddns]
syslog.log:  Sep 19 08:19:49 START_service-event-end: started [restart ddns]

The syslog entries are generated by my custom service-event script (triggered by the DDNS restart).
