No way to set ntp_server1 via GUI

As above - there is no way of setting a value for ntp_server1 via the UI. The default value is time.nist.gov. At one point this didn't matter as this field was never needed (the only reference to this setting I can find states that it isn't used - but that's from back in 2014). However, as of a couple of years back, this field is used:

https://github.com/RMerl/asuswrt-me...390497247fd0/release/src/router/rc/ntp.c#L186

As can be seen the effect of the if block starting at line 186 is that the router round-robins between the user provided NTP server (in ntp_server0) and the value of ntp_server1
