Add '--with-spl-timeout' option

When checking for the SPL Module.symvers file, a timeout can now be
passed in which will pause the configure step while it waits for this
file to be generated. By default, the configure behavior is unchanged as
a timeout of 0 is used. If a positive number of seconds is passed,
configure will wait that number of seconds for the Module.symvers file
before moving on.

The main motivation for this change was to support parallel execution of
'./configure && make' for the SPL and ZFS packages in preparation of
supporting DKMS based packages.
