ci: job timeout and --blame-hang so a stalled test step fails located, not after 3h of silence (lmxopcua#718)

Run 959 (job 3552) was silent from 13:39 for 3h12m and was failed by the server
reaper with no cause. Pre-#707 runs 935/938/941/942/947/959 all ended at 189-193 min;
no run since 76bdca90 exceeds 82 min (healthy ~53). Adds timeout-minutes 120 and
blame-hang (20m, no dump) to the whole-solution test step.
