Some of the capture tests were using explicit contexts, some not. Some
were poking the per engine pre-emption timeout, some not. This would
lead to sporadic failures due to random timeouts, contexts being
banned depending upon how many subtests were run and/or how many
engines a given platform has, and other such failures.
So, update all tests to be conistent.

Is there any point? There is no special reason for the values other than
small enough to be fast and long enough to not be too small to be usable. So
there isn't really any particular name to give them beyond
'SHORT_PREEMPT_TIMEOUT' or some such. And the whole point of the helper
function is that the values are programmed in one place only and not used
anywhere else. So there is no worry about repetition of magic numbers.
In about one year everyone has forgotten this explanation and will
wonder if it's related to some in-kernel behaviour or if there's some
other reason these values have been chosen.
So at least a comment why the values are these, please.
There is a comment already. Not sure what more can be added that is
meaningful other than changing it to "Ensure fast hang detection by
picking some random numbers out of the air that seem to be vaguely
plausible".
