Make the wait time for the MGMM_TESTCOPY_CAPTURE script tunable

The MGMM_TESTCOPY_CAPTURE script assumes a low RPO for the GM session and times out after 25 seconds. If the average RPO is 8 seconds or greater the TESTCOPY_CAPTURE will fail repeatedly leaving limited timeframes (ie during low system activity) when the procedure can be used.
We would like to either be able to specify a longer wait time, or preferably, have GDPS dynamically set the timeout based on current RPO.

    After giving the request a comprehensive review, we have determined that we cannot include it as a candidate in an upcoming release because it won?t be pursued within our planning cycle.
