Add a timeout clause to the rsync method

Gregory Ashton requested to merge add-timeout into master

Under normal operation, the rsync call can hang on the cluster. Usually, this is because the cluster (or target cluster) is not configured to enable ssh_to_job. In this MR, a timeout of 30s is added so that the approach will fail and revert to the spool. In testing, I found that if it wasn't successful after a few seconds, it would hang for more than 10 minutes, so a 30s timeout seems like a medium ground.
