Unify random timeouts throughout LLDB and make them configurable.

[aprantl]

Summary

Since these timeouts guard against catastrophic error in debugserver, I also increased all of them to the maximum value among them.

The motivation for this test was the observation that an asanified LLDB would often exhibit seemingly random test failures that could be traced back to debugserver packets getting out of sync. With this path applied I can no longer reproduce the one particular failure mode that I was investigating.

I should also note that I did check that process was either checked or dereferenced above the the locations where this patch dereferences it.

Tweaked the name of the option after some off-line discussion with Jim.

I hate that GDB remote packets can get out of sync. We should really think about adding sequence IDs to the GDB remote packets and responses and teach our GDB communication code to correctly deal with these. So many weird problems happen when things get out of sync.
