spec: Increase meson test timeout 10x
Tests time out when building in slow environments, like emulated
s390x in Fedora copr. Bump up the test timeout

the timeout multiplier has been added to the upstream spec file,
which the Fedora spec file is based on, so while you're correct that
Fedora is not yet using it, it's fair to assume it will soon make its
way there for the benefit of e.g. the virt-preview COPR.
