[PATCH] wined3d: Reduce timeout value to avoid GL_TIMEOUT_EXPIRED on macOS

From: Robert Xiao <brx at cs.cmu.edu>

I observed intermittent fence_wait failures on macOS due to
GL_TIMEOUT_EXPIRED while running Path of Exile 3.0.0c. My hypothesis is
that the previous value, ~(GLuint64)0xffff, overflowed internally after
being adjusted by the driver; after overflow, the timeout would be very
small and thus expire instantly.

To avoid that from happening, this patch uses a new, smaller timeout
value which should not be capable of overflow. The "- 0xffff" is
preserved to keep the low bits the same in case some driver needs them.
