[Buildroot] [git commit] busybox: support millisecond watchdog periods

commit: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=34945ebbd00c19f534d7d11d62bd03da2b3c4425
branch: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/master

The BusyBox watchdog application supports reset periods specified in
milliseconds. The Buildroot package will only allow an integer reset period,
which prevents the use of the required "ms" suffix. Change the watchdog period
configuration item to a string, to allow the use of the "ms" suffix.
