Merge #11091: test: Increase initial RPC timeout to 60 seconds

c1470a0 test: Increase initial RPC timeout to 60 seconds (Wladimir J. van der Laan)

Pull request description:

  When running the tests locally with a parallelism of 4 on an otherwise busy system, RPC can take quite a wait to come up.

  With the current timeout tests often fail with "Unable to connect to bitcoind".

  Change the timeout to 60 seconds just to be safe.
