Avoid using /usr/bin/timeout unnecessarily if timeout is set to 0 (disabled) in the "settings" file for a specific test.
NOTE: without this change (and adding timeout=0 in the corresponding settings file - tools/testing/selftests/seccomp/settings) the seccomp_bpf selftest is always failing with a timeout event during the syscall_restart step.
