[hotfix] bump hotline message expiry interval from 3 days to 1 week

aguestuser requested to merge hf-bump-hotline-message-expiry-interval-to-one-week into main
  • we observed several cases of trying to respond to a hotline message more than 3 days old and not being able to (b/c the hotline message id used to respond to the sender had been destroyed)
  • this is sad!
  • a week seems like a more reasonable time frame to expect to be able to respond to a message within and does not seem like too long to keep data around without deleting it (it is how long we preserve channels without people using them)
  • so: this MR updates the hotline message id deletion job to wait a week isntead of 3 days before deleting hotline ids. (it also updates our privacy policy to reflect that data retention decision)
