How are the new arguments used?

Please add an example usage for each of these new arguments.

It would good to make this message different from the WDIOC_SETTIMEOUT message.
Please update it to reflect that this is the result of a WDIOC_GETTIMEOUT.

What would user intend to do with this GETTIMEOUT? Shouldn't this be the case that it
prints the current value and exits instead of the same logic as SETTIMEOUT option?

Shouldn't this error be an exit condition?

Also can you run this test as normal user?
