fuzz: adjust timeout to allow for longer inputs

Using a custom timeout is useful to continue fuzzing complex devices,
even after we run into some slow code-path. However, simply adding a
fixed timeout to each input effectively caps the maximum input
length/number of operations at some artificial value. There are two
major problems with this:
1. Some code might only be reachable through long IO sequences.
2. Longer inputs can actually be _better_ for performance. While the
   raw number of fuzzer executions decreases with larger inputs, the
   number of MMIO/PIO/DMA operation/second actually increases, since
   were are speding proportionately less time fork()ing.

With this change, we keep the custom-timeout, but we renew it, prior to
each MMIO/PIO/DMA operation. Thus, we time-out only when a specific
operation takes a long time.
