The default timeout for selftests tests is 45 seconds. Although
we already have 13 settings for tests of about 96 sefltests which
use a timeout greater than this, we want to try to avoid encouraging
more tests to forcing a higher test timeout as selftests strives to
run all tests quickly. Selftests also uses the timeout as a non-fatal
error. Only tests runners which have control over a system would know
if to treat a timeout as fatal or not.

To help with all this:

   o Enhance documentation to avoid future increases of insane timeouts
   o Add the option to allow overriding the default timeout with test
     runners with a command line option

Shuah, just a friendly poke! This is needed to allow me to enable full
automation for kdevops for selftests.

Shuah, friendly re-poke.
