Tests do not time-out on Linux

[mkborg]

Sometimes some tests running on Linux (and especially on 32-bit ARM Linux) are stuck for too long time (let's say for several hours) and I have to manually kill them.
I have seen on Windows that one test was terminated by time-out. Am I correct assuming that every test running on Linux also shall be terminated on time-out?

👍 Just tried to run the test suite for ARM over the week-end and did not go to completion because it got stuck, so having a functional timeout for Linux would be nice. (see #5460).
