Move previously unadvertised SendPeriodicAppearanceUpdates setting from [Startup] to [Appearance] config section.

Add description and default of false (as before) to OpenSimDefaults.ini
If set to true, this config switch will resend avatar appearance information (a small amount of UUID data, not the baked textures themselves) to other avatars in the sim every 60 seconds.
For me, this has helped with situations where avatars appear persistently grey - the LL viewer sometimes did not appear to request assets the first time the appearance data was sent.
However, this switch will not help with other appearance failure situations (e.g. failure to bake assets).
This setting is experimental but will not have any significant impact on the simulator if turned to true.
