net/hns3: add runtime config for mailbox limit time

Current, the max waiting time for MBX response is 500ms, but in
some scenarios, it is not enough. Since it depends on the response
of the kernel mode driver, and its response time is related to the
scheduling of the system. In this special scenario, most of the
cores are isolated, and only a few cores are used for system
scheduling. When a large number of services are started, the
scheduling of the system will be very busy, and the reply of the
mbx message will time out, which will cause our PMD initialization
to fail.

This patch add a runtime config to set the max wait time. For the
above scenes, users can adjust the waiting time to a suitable value
by themselves.
