On certain ThinkPad models like the E14 and T495, setting level 0 again when already at level 0 briefly spins up the fans.

To avoid this, change the behaviour to write the watchdog timeout when we are close to expiration rather than setting the level again.

Closes #32. Also see vmatare/thinkfan#114.
