Parsing days in timestamp fails in notation cert generate-test -e

[nelson-wu]

$ notation cert generate-test -e 12d
Incorrect Usage: invalid value "12d" for flag -e: parse error

Since the -h page gives --expiry value, -e value certificate expiry (default: 8760h0m0s), I expected it to be able to parse "d" as days. Perhaps clarify the allowed format in the help?

Thanks @nelson-wu. @shizhMSFT, what do you think? Any PRs are welcome to fix

The expiry value is parsed into time.Duration by the built-in method time.ParseDuration() and it does not support days.

    With  the current implementation, we yet don't support `d` (e.g. `30d` ).

Originally posted by @shizhMSFT in #417 (comment)

notation sign command supports an optional expiry flag for user to specify a "best by use" time for the artifact. The duration can be specified in minutes(m) or/and hours(h). The intention of this issue is to support duration in days, for example, 30d, 1d3h20m.
