[FEATURE REQ] Have the possibility to decide the installation expiration window

[andrekiba]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I still do not understand why you decided to reverse the default behavior (no expiration) but in this case we need I way to decide the expiration window (some apps are meant to be kiosks, they "never" restart...)

Describe the solution you'd like
Provide a way to pass a custom (longer) duration through the NotificationHubInstallationAdapter constructor.
Actually this constructor is private

Please tell me if I can help with a pr, the problem is the meaning of this project which is not clear to me.
Is it something official? As already asked do you plan to have a nuget package? In which way I can help?
Thanks @marstr

This is a valuable explanation of why you need more control over expiration dates. While expiration dates really help us at an operational level, I can start looking into an option for you. If nothing else, this could be a good cookbook addition.

Howdy @andrekiba,

There's a method called NotificationHub.BeginInstallationUpdate(). It's a public method, and under the covers it's what is used to alert us that we should look into updating an Installation for a myriad of reasons, but including that the installation is about to expire.

If you add a call to this method that happens periodically (say once a day), your installation will always be kept alive.

ok @marstr thanks,
I try with a scheduled daily task to call this.
I'll keep you posted.
