The current start + stop timeouts for xdg autostart files are *very* short with 5s. On a busy system this might be too easy to hit even in unintended case. Apparently, the intention here was to cut the shutdown logic short. (https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/27919#issuecomment-1580576178) Let's hence stick to the very short timeout for that (under the assumption that apps are written in a safe enough style to not lose data if killed too early). But for starting XGD autostrat services, use our regular timeouts. See: #27919
