…8169) <!-- Provide an overview of the change and motivation for the change --> We found that 30s timeout doesn't play well with gunicorn, which has 30s initialization timout for the worker. If the user naively calls `openfeature.api.set_provider()` at the top-level, RC failing to deliver configuration may bring their whole application down with hard-to-debug `[CRITICAL] WORKER TIMEOUT` error message. Decrease default timeout to 10s, which is enough when RC is working but not too long to cause other issues/upstream timeouts. <!-- Describe your testing strategy or note what tests are included --> <!-- Note any risks associated with this change, or "None" if no risks --> <!-- Any other information that would be helpful for reviewers --> Part of incident-54756, follow up to #16650 Co-authored-by: brett.langdon <brett.langdon@datadoghq.com> (cherry picked from commit 017bc2a)
