Adding decompress_archive_file_timeout to application settings

Max Fan requested to merge 421432-move-maximum-wait-seconds-for-decompressing-archive-file into master

What does this MR do and why?

Currently the hardcoded timeout of 210seconds for decompressing archived files is too short for some customers. If we were to move this to application settings, self-managed users can set their own timeouts depending on how long they want to wait.

Screenshots or screen recordings

Screenshots are required for UI changes, and strongly recommended for all other merge requests.

How to set up and validate locally

  1. Ensure import/export still works.
  2. Timeout is changeable, by changing the timeout limit in the UI and then going into rails console to check Gitlab::CurrentSettings.current_application_settings.decompress_archive_file_timeout or the new database column decompress_archive_file_timeout should reflect the new changed timeout value
