Raise default Geo base backup timeout to 12 hours

Stan Hu requested to merge sh-raise-geo-backup-timeout into master

What does this MR do?

Previously the default shell timeout was 10 minutes, which would abruptly kill pg_basebackup running on a large database. Since there's no way to disable the timeout outright, raise it to a large value that should cover most databases.
