OpenSSH PROTOCOL.certkeys specifies that valid_before=0xffffffffffffffff (u64::MAX) means the certificate never expires. Previously UnixTime::new rejected this value because it exceeds MAX_SECS (i64::MAX), causing Certificate parsing to fail for any cert generated without an explicit validity window (e.g. ssh-keygen -s ca -h key.pub without -V). Add FOREVER_SECS=u64::MAX constant. In new(), cap its SystemTime representation at MAX_SECS to keep a valid SystemTime while preserving the raw secs value for round-trip encoding correctness. Fixes: RustCrypto#503
