PeerAllowPush: consent to exchange pushes, for a while, and nothing else

PeerTrust syncs a peer's pins and serves it everything - too much to
grant a stranger. An app that wants two peers sharing something (two
phones at the same place) to hand each other new content allows pushes
for ttl_secs (at most a day): both sides may push, the receiver pins,
and the allowance lapses on its own. Asking again extends it;
PeerUntrust ends it. varde-ctl peer allow-push.
