Investigate incorrect "Will be deleted in X days" messages #73

Sometimes Archivo warns that a recording will be deleted much sooner than it seems like it should (e.g., if there's plenty of space left on the TiVo and not enough scheduled recordings to fill up the remaining space). As of November, this issue was caused by TiVo sending incorrect estimates of when it would delete a recording, but since there have been a couple of TiVo software updates since then, we should re-investigate to see if that's still the case.

Archivo appears to be faithfully reporting the expected deletion time from the TiVo itself, so if this date appears incorrect, it is likely a bug in the TiVo software.
