Backstop against a wedged ubuntu-latest runner hanging up to the 6h default (as happened on an apt-get step in PR #123). Job-level cap covers all steps, current and future, with no per-step maintenance. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <claude.noreply@salesforce.com>

timeout-minutes: 10to the three CI jobs:test-scripts(test-scripts.yml)security(security.yml)verify-zips(verify-zip.yml)Why
On PR #123, a
test-scriptsrun hung ~38 minutes on theapt-get"Install XML tools" step because the ubuntu-latest runner was wedged — the identical step in thesecurityjob on the same commit finished in 90s, confirming it was a bad runner, not the code. Without a cap, a wedged runner runs up to GitHub's 6h default before failing.A job-level timeout is the minimal backstop: it caps the whole job (all steps, current and future) so a hung runner fails fast and is retriable, with no per-step maintenance. 10 min is generous over the normal ~2 min runtime, so it only fires on a genuine hang.
