tests: Don't fail due to high default timeout in postmaster/003_start_stop

Some BF animals use very high timeouts due to their slowness. Unfortunately postmaster/003_start_stop fails if a high timeout is configured, due to authentication_timeout having a fairly low max. As this test is reasonably fast, the easiest fix seems to be to cap the timeout to 600. Per buildfarm animal skink.
