docs: fix the expire_timeout direction in the spec and plan
The freedesktop spec says -1 means the server decides and 0 means never; the
spec and plan had them reversed, which the shipped code inherited and the
live handover test caught. Corrected to match the spec, libnotify's -1
default and dunst.
