services: shepherd: Increase the PID file timeout to 30s. 

When running the installation image off a DVD, early I/O operations are
extremely slow, to the point that something like dbus-daemon would need
~20s to start.  This change works around the issue.

Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/40572>.
Reported by Florian Pelz <pelzflorian@pelzflorian.de>.

* gnu/services/shepherd.scm (shepherd-configuration-file): Set
%pid-file-timeout to 30.
