This is a respin of Daniel's series that re-enables the meson test
runner timeouts. To make sure that we do not get into trouble on
older systems, I ran all the tests with "make check SPEED=slow -j32"
on my laptop that has only 16 SMT threads, so each test was running
quite a bit slower than with a normal "-j$(nproc)" run. I think
that these timeouts should now work in most cases - if not, we still
can adjust them easily later.
I'm picking this up for stable branches too, since there we have the same
problems in CI environment. In particular, bios-tables-test almost always
times out, even hitting retry doesn't help. Let's see how it goes..
Uh, wait, that does not make too much sense ... if bios-tables-test already
times out *without* the additional meson-based timeouts, then adding the
meson timeouts won't help. bios-tables-test uses the manually coded timeout
from boot_sector_test() that is currently set to 600 seconds. If you hit
that timeout, that likely means that something is really broken in your
branch - or is it sometimes still succeeding?
