Implement timeout for workers and corrected timeout for subworkflows (#1634)
* Implemented timeout for workers and corrected timeout for subworkflows

* Fixed issue with timeouts when running on separate processes

* Standardized timeouts across all n8n

Now the maxTimeout setting takes effect whenever a timeout is set
to any workflows.

This causes local timeouts (either set on a per-workflow basis or
via global settings) to be capped by the maximum timeout. This
behavior already existed but was not applied to all places.

Also changed the way n8n enforces timeouts for subworkflows, making
it work always.

In effect, with this change, if you have one workflow that calls others
only the main workflow's timeout is taken into consideration, limiting
the maximum time that other workflows combined can run.

*  Fix timeout problem in "own" mode

What does n8n mean and how do you pronounce it?

Short answer: It means "nodemation" and it is pronounced as n-eight-n.

Long answer: "I get that question quite often (more often than I expected) so I decided it is probably best to answer it here. While looking for a good name for the project with a free domain I realized very quickly that all the good ones I could think of were already taken. So, in the end, I chose nodemation. 'node-' in the sense that it uses a Node-View and that it uses Node.js and '-mation' for 'automation' which is what the project is supposed to help with. However, I did not like how long the name was and I could not imagine writing something that long every time in the CLI. That is when I then ended up on 'n8n'." - Jan Oberhauser, Founder and CEO, n8n.io
