Correct, neither old-run-webkit-tests nor new-run-webkit-tests
supports per-test custom timeouts. new-run-webkit-tests does support
the concept of "slow" tests (i.e., two timeouts), but we generally use
this to reduce the default value (i.e., chromium runs with 6 and 12
seconds).

As Brady said, the test needs to be redesigned or broken up if it
takes that long to run.
