Two hardcoded timeouts default valued make some tests fail on Cygwin
(presumably because Cygwin is slow, and forking is horribly slow):
* sage/tests/cmdline.py, the timeout value (current default 50.0 secs) of
test_executable;
* sagenb/misc/misc.py, the alarm value (current default 1 sec) when
launcing the notebook (which makes lauching the notebook tricky.
See http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/6743#comment:144 and

Just slightly (from a human point of view) increasing these values let the
tests pass on recent and even not so recent and powerful harware running
Cygwin, so let's increase these default values unconditionnally rather
than adding Cygwin specific code, or warnings about expected to fail tests
or whatever; let's say:
* 100.0 secs in test_executable,
* 5 secs when launching the notebook.
