[ci] increase timeout on R Hub Solaris job to 4 hours

[jameslamb]

Proposes increasing the timeout on the R-package CI job testing on Solaris via R Hub, from 2 hours to 4 hours.

I recently observed a run that took 3h32m, which led to the GitHub Actions job being marked failed, blocking merging of a PR.

#4827 (comment)

Looks like it won't help.

Actually, I think the whole job fails because the second Solaris job isn't starting.

	platforms <- c(
	"solaris-x86-patched"
	, "solaris-x86-patched-ods"

oh sad! Ok yes, looks like you're right. I'll investigate as soon as possible. I did check and can confirm both of those environments are still active, according to rhub::platforms().

run r-solaris

This job you just triggered won't read the new timeout value, right? I thought that the triggering-comments jobs had to read their configuration only from master (#4397 (comment), #4503).

Yep! Just wanted to check again. Maybe there were temporary problems on the R-Hub side.

This time CI job (both Solaris R-Hub jobs) passed in less than 1h...

[jameslamb]

oh wow, interesting! Ok, maybe it was just an infrastructure issue with R Hub then!

We can close this PR and try again on #4827. Thanks for investigating.
