Subject: [PATCH] Finalize renaming MAX_WAITSOCK --> ROBOT_TIMEOUT

The commit 51a35b0344128640237ec6b8f744f2aeabaec442 changed variable names but there were leftovers. Also
before the tiemout values were reduced, so that the check may run faster. What was left were that some
timeout values were still too long. Thus MAX_WAITSOCK is now completely changed to ROBOT_TIMEOUT .
Also when the ROBOT check identified something as potentially vulnerable, the timeout value ist increased to
8 seconds which is less than in 3.2 . Tests however showed so far that there were no false positives or
negatives.

Moreover it changes the local variable robottimeout to robot_timeout.

This PR fixes #2983 for 3.3dev .
