afs: Fix the maximum lifespan of VL and probe calls
If an older AFS server doesn't support an operation, it may accept the call
and then sit on it forever, happily responding to pings that make kafs
think that the call is still alive.

Fix this by setting the maximum lifespan of Volume Location service calls
in particular and probe calls in general so that they don't run on
endlessly if they're not supported.
