The next commit excludes some junit/testng tests where I can currently not change the timeout factor (CODETOOLS-7903961). Both these commits will be reverted before integrating the change. I will also apply copyright updates after the review.

The amount of updated testcases is huge, and my strategy has been to quadruple the timeout if I could not directly see that less was needed (thus the timeout will be the same after JDK-8260555 is implemented). In a few places I have added a bit more timeout so that it will work with the 0.7 timeout factor.

Thank you. I have imported your PR locally and running some HTTP client tests in the CI.
Tests have not finished running - but I already see one intermittent failure:
`java/net/httpclient/RedirectTimeoutTest.java` is timing out intermittently on windows.
It would be good to flush out any such intermittent failures before this PR is integrated.
This might require multiple runs before we can get confidence.
