Spike simulator is very demanding to CPU resources. This causes debug tests to sporadically fail on slower machines. Increasing of gdb's `remotetimeout` should get rid of such failures, unless we run the testsuite on a potato. The only downside is that if OpenOCD is broken, tests can run longer. However, I think this is the sacrifice we can make, since execution time is not affected if everything works as expected.
