bug#70127: 29.3; ERC 5.6-git: /ignore timeouts are not cancelled/reset

[Alcor]

Severity: wishlist

On Erc (5.6snapshot0.20240323.151032):

1. /IGNORE a specific nick with an explicit timeout (e.g. 5m)
2. /IGNORE the same nick again with a different timeout (e.g. 10m)

Expected behavior:

The /IGNORE'ed nick is unignored after 10 minutes.

Observed behavior:

The /IGNORE'ed nick is unignored after 5 minutes, afterwhich it is
unignored again after 10 minutes. The latter command is a no-op though,
as the nick would be already unignored at that point.

Additional Information:

As per
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-erc/2024-04/msg00005.html, erc
does not save the handles to the created timeout. This will have to be
changed in order to achieve the desired behavior.
