When memslot_perf_test is run on the Qemu Risc-V Virt machine,
sometimes the RW subtest fails due to sigalarm, indicating that the
guest sync did not finish within the expected duration of 10 seconds.
Since the current timeout value is itself a bump up from the original
2s, making the host timeout value configurable via a new command line
parameter. The test can be invoked with '-t' option to set a suitable
timeout value for the host.

Changes in v2:
  - Change the timeout option flag from 'a' to 't'
  - Specify the test platform (Qemu Risc-V Virt) in the commit message
