This patch series adds a an option to specify a timeout value in the config for starting VMs. The minimum is 0 seconds, which disables the timeout completely. The maximum is 86400 seconds, equivalent to 1 day.
The timeout value can also be passed via the CLI, which always overrides the setting. If no value for timeout is passed, the timeout will either be read from the config, or if unavailable, chosen heuristically like before, with a default of 30 seconds in most cases. For this, a new property string called "startoptions" is added. Currently only the VM start timeout is configurable with it.
