RPC: Hide softfork if timeout is 0 #8258

   Replace #8209

   getblockchaininfo will not show a BIP9 proposal if the timeout is 0. A timeout before the genesis block timestamp guarantees that a softfork must not be activated in any circumstances. A timeout of 0 should be used when we want to merge a softfork proposal without defining its deployment schedule

   ACK https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/8258/commits/409f83322e9fe3257cf9f3f61813195ac1aaa20c

   Without this change, the current master shows (RPC getblockchaininfo):

       "segwit": {
         "status": "failed",
         "startTime": 0,
         "timeout": 0
       }

    This needs backport to 0.12, but will only merge cleanly after segwit.

    @laanwj I don't think a backport is needed since we won't release a backport with undefined softfork
