wifi-scripts: bump reassociation_deadline default to 20000
Most users on forums face a broken 802.11r setup when having
a very simple 802.11r config (i.e., just ieee80211r enabled).
In most cases, simply bumping reassociation_deadline to
20000 fixes their problems and allows 802.11r to just work.
Reassociation Deadline is already set to 20 seconds on Cisco
equipment by default[1] which is why this value has been
chosen.
It is also mentioned on the OpenWRT Wiki as a value that should
be changed in order for 802.11r to work on Apple devices. I think
it would be better to change the defaults instead so users don't
have to do much work for a working setup.
