The default are set to no expiry because we felt like deleting data by
default is not a good choice. If there's a consensus that the default
should be something else, maybe that could be fixed directly upstream.

Now, I'd like to emphasize that this part of Ceilometer is officially
deprecated, so I hope not too much effort is put into this, and more in
the new projects that are now recommended (i.e. Gnocchi). :-)
