✨ Set timeout for _wait_container.py

[ArBridgeman]

Summary

As currently implemented, the _wait_container.py continues indefinitely to verify an initial connection, this is problematic on systems, like the CI, where a user is not present to terminate the command.

Background & Context

We want to ensure that resources are used responsibly and that automated runs do not require human intervention to successfully timeout, if issues arise.

Examples

We use the _wait_container.py in our CI pipelines to run the test the examples, as seen in the examples.yml.

When testing out a change to encrypted SSL connections to require strict certification validation, we observed that the CI pipeline was in an endless loop. It ran for nearly 30 minutes before it was caught. For comparison, a example successful run takes up to 2 minutes.

It would be nice to have a better way of checking that Exasol instance is ready. Not only connection server, but ExaBucket.

It should be a basic feature, with no need for workarounds.
