services: shepherd: Increase the PID file timeout to 30s.
When running the installation image off a DVD, early I/O operations are extremely slow, to the point that something like dbus-daemon would need ~20s to start. This change works around the issue. Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/40572>. Reported by Florian Pelz <pelzflorian@pelzflorian.de>. * gnu/services/shepherd.scm (shepherd-configuration-file): Set %pid-file-timeout to 30.
