tools/selftests: Use a sensible timeout value for iperf3 client



The default timeout of cmd() is 5 seconds and Iperf3Runner requests the
iperf3 client to run for 10 seconds, which clearly doesn't work since
commit [1] enforced the timeout parameter.

Use a value derived from duration as timeout (+5 seconds for
startup/teardown/various other overhead).
