bpo-38614: Use test.support.SHORT_TIMEOUT constant (GH-17566)
Replace hardcoded timeout constants in tests with SHORT_TIMEOUT of test.support, so it's easier to ajdust this timeout for all tests at once. SHORT_TIMEOUT is 30 seconds by default, but it can be longer depending on --timeout command line option. The change makes almost all timeouts longer, except test_reap_children() of test_support which is made 2x shorter: SHORT_TIMEOUT should be enough. If this test starts to fail, LONG_TIMEOUT should be used instead. Uniformize also "from test import support" import in some test files.

+new :mod:`test.support` constants: :data:`~test.support.LOOPBACK_TIMEOUT`,
+:data:`~test.support.INTERNET_TIMEOUT`, :data:`~test.support.SHORT_TIMEOUT` and
+:data:`~test.support.LONG_TIMEOUT`. It becomes easier to adjust these four
+timeout constants for all tests at once, rather than having to adjust every
