#831: Need a means to set keepaliveTimeout on slaves

 buildbot create-slave supports:

   -k, --keepalive=   Interval at which keepalives should be sent (in
 seconds)
                      [default: 600]

 but the keepaliveTimeout is not configurable, and is hard-coded at 30
 seconds.  This is the time between when the slave sends a keepalive
 message and when it expects a response from the master.

 Due to clock wonkiness or a busy master, or whatever, we see response
 times longer than 30 seconds, so we need to configure this.
