watchdog: WatchDog Timer Driver Core - Add minimum and max timeout
Add min_timeout (minimum timeout) and max_timeout values so that the framework can check if the new timeout value is between the minimum and maximum timeout values. If both values are 0, then the framework will leave the check for the watchdog device driver itself.
