	Here's a bunch of fixes for the watchdog app in busybox. This does a
	couple of things:

		- configurable timer duration (userspace timer duration is
		  usually configurable within the device drivers themselves).
		- run as a daemon
		- shutdown the device properly on SIGINT or SIGHUP
		- clear the counter immediately instead of sleeping first

	as well as updating the usage information. This has also been switched
	over to getopt to deal with the optional timer duration specifier.

	The changes themselves are harmless and isolated, and I've veried that
	this works on sh and x86 without any problems.
