lowering TTL to 5m due to ipfs/specs#492 lifetime is validity of signature, and that should be fine up to 48h, to match DHT expiration window

This PR is changing implicit default TTL of IPNS Record produced by this library from 1h to 5m. Same rationale as ipfs/kubo#10718 and ipfs/helia#749. This library has its own default TTL, which is separate from one we already updated ipfs/helia#749. Making this change so we have the same default everywhere. Historical notes - Before April 2024 the IPNS Record TTL was not set (0) in this library - Since #308 the `1h` default produced by this library started causing stale cache issues that end users often report as "ipns is slow (to update/propagate)". - We've changed default recommendation to 5m in ipfs/specs#492
