Make `spawn()` `expect_timeout` configurable

Add `expect_timeout: float` param to `_spawn()`
so individual tests can tune `pexpect` timeouts
instead of relying on the hard-coded 3/10 split.

Deats,
- default to 4s, bump by +6 on non-linux CI.
- use walrus `:=` to capture resolved timeout and  assert
  `spawned.timeout == timeout` for sanity.
