Follow-up to #6871
When cat-log is run in tail mode, and the log file is deleted or the tail process is killed, cat-log exits after 60s since #6871.
However, the test
tests/functional/cylc-cat-log/12-delete-kill.tis waiting 60s for the cat-log process to exit so the test has become slow + flaky.This fix allows customising the interval for watching the tail process via an env var
CYLC_PROC_POLL_INTERVALso that the test can be made to run quickly.Check List
