Test timeout extension for inspection

The default introspection time for shade may be too short for some
environments. As such, extending the timeout to be longer to provide
nodes an opportunity to boot, check-in, and reply with results.

The library default, which I believe is 900 seconds, was also based
on basic tests where I determined that _most_ systems should check-in
with-in based on:

 - 300 seconds to POST
 - 300 seconds to PXE
 - 300 seconds to Boot and start IPA.

inspection_wait_timeout: Integer value in seconds, defaults to 1800.
This value may need to be adjusted if the underlying
shade library's default timeout is insufficent for
a node to perform an inspection sequence with.
The timeout assumption in the library was
based upon there being three phases to complete
an inspection sequence, BIOS POST, (i)PXE,
and then booting of the ramdisk and IPA.
In most cases, each phase should be completed
under 300 seconds, although that will vary based
upon the hardware configuration.

fixes:
- Some users have encountered issues with introspection
periodically timing out for systems. As a result, we have
added a new parameter ``inspection_wait_timeout`` that is
now defaulted to ``1800`` seconds.
