orterun: Add parameter to control when we give up on stack traces

 * MCA option to control how long we wait for stack traces:
   - orte_timeout_for_stack_trace INTEGER
     Default: 30
     Setting to <= 0 will cause it to wait forever
 * Useful when gathering stack traces from large jobs which might take
   a long time.
