## ℹ️ Description
- Related issues: #671, #658
- Introduces configurable timeout controls plus retry/backoff handling
for flaky DOM operations.
We often see timeouts which are note reproducible in certain
configurations. I suspect timeout issues based on a combination of
internet speed, browser, os, age of the computer and the weather.
This PR introduces a comprehensive config model to tweak timeouts.
## 📋 Changes Summary
- add TimeoutConfig to the main config/schema and expose timeouts in
README/docs
- wire WebScrapingMixin, extractor, update checker, and browser
diagnostics to honor the configurable timeouts and retries
- update translations/tests to cover the new behaviour and ensure
lint/mypy/pyright pipelines remain green
