Subject: [LTP] [PATCH v2 1/2] lib: add tst_get_timeout()

Hi!
It's just an idea, but we can make this even more elegant API.

We measure the time in the test library anyway, so what about we added
something as tst_timeout_reached() that would return number of seconds
remaining to 80% of the real timeout or 0 if in a case that the timeout
was reached. Then we can use this as a soft-timeout in all the testcases
without any additional steps.
