Necessary to work around this:

This is only a problem for now because we link libLLVM; once we start invoking
llc instead, we won't need this workaround anymore.
This was removed in 125a9aa82b. But now that our
x86_64-linux machines have had their resources properly allocated, resulting in
runs taking 1-3 hours rather than 4-8, we can add this back.
The last commit passed CI, so this final bump is just to allow for
deviation caused by different loads on the runner machines. With this
change, I don't expect any current unit test to ever time out, even when
CI is under extreme load.
Unfortunately, Windows' scheduler means that test timeouts get hit very
easily, because it seems the system can refuse to schedule a waiting
process for *upwards of 10 minutes*. We should look for a better
solution for this problem going forwards, but for now, just give Windows
a very high test timeout.
The 30 minute timeout set here is around the duration of a *full CI run*
on Windows, so it should be impossible to hit normally, but it means
that if a test gets stuck we'll at least get told (eventually).
There are two reasons for this:
1. Apple is about to drop support for this target. Zig will keep support
but move it to a lower tier - one that does not require continuous CI
testing. Support for this target will be maintained by the enthusiasm
of contributors but will not block other bug fixes and enhancements.
2. This is our only non-self-hosted action runner. We are migrating away
from GitHub soon at which point this runner will no longer be
available.
