Title:
  external feed rss not updating

Bug description:
  The change 70f75a2d75af47aa11aa93ee5b587d41caf957e9 sets the
  lastupdate column in blocktype_externalfeed_data to null via this bit
  of code db_format_timestamp('0')

  Which in itself is fine - but the refresh_feeds() call can't handle
  the null value so doesn't update the feed.

  If one edits a feed the lastupdate field is populated with a date and
  can be processed again.

  As the problem has been around since 1.7 I propose to fix it by
  letting refresh_feeds() handle the null as well - this way existing
  bad data will get cleaned up.
