Eelco Dolstra a4921b8ceb Revert "build-remote.pl: Enforce timeouts locally"
This reverts commit 69b8f9980f.

The timeout should be enforced remotely.  Otherwise, if the garbage
collector is running either locally or remotely, if will block the
build or closure copying for some time.  If the garbage collector
takes too long, the build may time out, which is not what we want.
Also, on heavily loaded systems, copying large paths to and from the
remote machine can take a long time, also potentially resulting in a
timeout.

# General operation:
#
# Try to find a free machine of type $neededSystem. We do this as
# follows:
# - We acquire an exclusive lock on $currentLoad/main-lock.
# - For each machine $machine of type $neededSystem and for each $slot
# less than the maximum load for that machine, we try to get an
# exclusive lock on $currentLoad/$machine-$slot (without blocking).
# If we get such a lock, we send "accept" to the caller. Otherwise,
# we send "postpone" and exit.
# - We release the exclusive lock on $currentLoad/main-lock.
# - We perform the build on $neededSystem.
# - We release the exclusive lock on $currentLoad/$machine-$slot.
#
# The nice thing about this scheme is that if we die prematurely, the
# locks are released automatically.
# Make sure that we don't get any SSH passphrase or host key popups -
# if there is any problem it should fail, not do something
# interactive.
