Merge wait and timeout to one parameter since we only have scheduled actions

The original idea of `wait` and `timeout` was to distinguish between
actions that immediately return and actions that scheduled. This
mechanism was however never used and resulted in an misinterpretation
of in the force-kill PR. We now only deal with scheduled actions to
simplify the logic.
