Relative time specifications should use days for longer instead of immediatly jumping to months

i noticed this recently and it led to some confusion, a gap of ~80 days between posts will lead to a “3 months later” banner, which is quite confusing on the rust forums, since threads auto-lock after 3 months.

additionally, the loss of precicion in rounding up from 40 days to 2 months is very significant. i propose that these relative times shouldn’t start being displayed in months until they exceed 120 days.
