Let a bundle write a state key with its own time to live and hear its end, so wakes need no in-process timer (issue 1952)

mesh/state.create and mesh/state.put take ttl_seconds (mesh-sdk 32f5ce3's
CreateTTL/RenewTTL contract); a bucket not declared key-ttl is refused,
naming it; a watch hands an expired key as op "expire". Pins mesh-sdk 32f5ce3.
