Currently, these are present but not enforced.

A simple timeout to start is not a "clean" failure case; the stop phase
of the script would need to be called, and the stop phase would need to
complete successfully in order to allow starting the resource on a
different node in the cluster.

A timeout exceeded on "stop" would make the resource mostly
unrecoverable (requiring manual intervention).

A timeout exceeded on "status" would probably mean a failure (right?)
