cex: provide the user with a means to change the timeout
Reported by Frank Heckenbach. https://lists.gnu.org/r/bug-bison/2022-07/msg00011.html * bootstrap.conf: Use c_strtod, so that even in French locales "1.5" is accepted, instead of "1,5". * src/counterexample.c, src/state-item.c: Use xtime_t instead of time_t, so that accuracy goes from seconds to nanoseconds. ( counterexample_init): Depend on cex.timeout rather than $TIME_LIMIT. * doc/bison.texi (%define Summary): Document cex.timeout.

+ The `cex.timeout` %define variable allows to control when we give up
+ finding a unifying counterexample. For instance `bison -Wcex
+ -Dcex.timeout=.5 gram.y` to limit to 1/2s.
