Not really sure what was the idea 7+ years ago, but the code just doesn't make sense now.

Deduplicate code

Allow CloudFlare DDNS entries to use "" or "." for the hostname portion of the domain in the GUI to update the domain's @ record. Then in the backend code, remove that from the FQDN since CloudFlare doesn't like that to be sent explicitly. Fixes #7357

Fix is confirmed to work by two forum users: https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=122099.msg699763#msg699763

Do not enforce a max limit on state timeout when editing a firewall rule. Fixes #7356

While I'm here, fix the case when the admin account has been removed.

When resetting admin account via /etc/rc.initial.password, Check if the admin account is expired and reset if needed. Fixes #7354

Adjust fix for ticket #7294 for 2.3.x, it used a setHelp change that was only valid on 2.4.
