When codex is running a command or tool call, you should be able to see and change the timeout

What feature would you like to see?
Often times the AI makes incorrect timeout choices when asked to execute a tool call; sometimes it sets a low timeout for long tasks, other times it sets a long timeout for tasks that should never take more than a few seconds. It would be useful to know how much time codex gave a task, and to be able to influence that somehow. If you know a task should be over already, it would be great to just force it to timeout, and if you know a task is not going to finish in the expected time, it would be great to be able to add a minute to it.
