build: update _exec to handle timeouts gracefully when waitForMatch does not match within 60 seconds.

Previously, if `waitForMatch` failed to find a match, the CI process could hang indefinitely. This commit updates the method to ensure it fails after a 60-second timeout, preventing such blocks.

Example: https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/actions/runs/12709516529/job/35428835418?pr=29318
(cherry picked from commit a67825e)
