Description

Poor thing is stuck on an unsigned repo.
AFAIK this is run without timeout? The result is that it will be stuck, badly.

The nasty part is this way, even if you have a policy to delete the problematic repo, the agent seems to never reach it.
This one (demo) is stuck for over 10 minutes already.
It absolutely makes sense to allow "no timeout" for software installs, but for metadata fetch it's a bit of overkill. I think 15 seconds would be enough, this system has 8 repos assigned, so a maximum timeout could be under 5 minutes with this change.

There is now a global timeout (very long).
But more important, there is no more any question asked by zypper which would block the update.
