Every time we compute the overall sync state we check if the File Provider Extension is reachable so we can display if this has encountered a problem. The issue is that if it is not reachable, we wait 3 seconds to receive a reply, and if we do not, we wait all of those 3 seconds. Now have that happen every single time we need to compute the sync state.
This PR addresses the problem by slashing the wait time down to 1 second and adding a reachability check timeout of 300 seconds, so we will (worst case) encounter a 1 second freeze every 5 minutes instead
