P2 Badge Keep the remote loopback probe at its shorter timeout

Use a separate timeout for the remote-side loopback probe: this constant is substituted into T3_READY_PROBE_TIMEOUT_MS, while reuse calls wait_ready "2000". Because REMOTE_WAIT_READY_SCRIPT checks that 2-second deadline only before starting a request, an existing listener that accepts but does not complete its response can hold each reuse check for the full 8 seconds; some paths perform two checks, delaying environment startup by roughly 16 seconds before recovery. The higher bound should apply only to the desktop-to-tunnel request that crosses the high-RTT link.

Remove the duplicate Deferred import.

Line 7 redeclares the Deferred binding that Line 5 already imports. TypeScript rejects the duplicate identifier, so this test module cannot compile.

Reuse probe exceeds overall timeout

Low Severity

Raising SSH_READY_PROBE_TIMEOUT_MS to 8s also feeds remote T3_READY_PROBE_TIMEOUT_MS, which is now larger than REMOTE_REUSE_READY_TIMEOUT_MS (2s). REMOTE_WAIT_READY_SCRIPT only checks the deadline between probes, so a hung loopback probe can run the full 8s and the 2s reuse budget no longer bounds those attempts.
