pve-manager.service: do not allow stop to timeout

This services is responsible for bringing up 'onboot' marked guests
on host power-on and stop _all_ guests gracefully on host shutdown
(be it reboot, shutdow, halt, ..)

It's type is set to 'oneshot', which implies a TimeoutStartSec of
'infinity', by default. With Jessies Version of Systemd the
TimeoutStopSec defaulted to TimeoutStartSec, if not set – so also
'infinity'.
But, Debian Stretchs Version of Systemd makes TimeoutStopSec defaults
to 'DefaultTimeoutStopSec' if it was not set, which is by default 90
seconds – much less than infinity.

This may cause non-gracefull shutdowns of guests, as after the 90
seconds systemd sends a SIGKILL to the pvesh 'stopall' process.
This may end in a bad guest state then. But besides that it can also
lead to a hanging shutdown in some cirumstancesm, as some guest still
operated on storages, so systemd-shutdown - the binary which gets
exec'ed by systemd to become the new PID 1 cannot finish its
sync/umount/shutdown procedure. It has a watchdog armed on sync, if
that triggers you may even get a fully shut down system.
Else it can possibly hang forever, at least until the power plug gets
pulled or similar actions are taken.
