[Bug 1971905] [NEW] md5check should cancel itself on slow storage

[Michael Hudson-Doyle]

Public bug reported:

We have a bunch of bug reports about cloud-init not completing within 10
minutes when the installer media is mounted as a virtual ISO/image and
adding 'fsck.mode=skip' the command line usually helps.

We could instrument casper-md5check to monitor how long it is taking or
just have a timer (I guess we could add TimeoutSec= to the service file
but it would be nice to report this in the json file somehow).
