Add a configuration variable, indexhelper.exitAfter, which provides a
default time to keep the index-helper alive.  This is useful with
indexhelper.autorun; some users will want to keep the
automatically-run index-helper alive across their lunch break and will
thus set indexhelper.exitAfter to a high value.
