Web Inspector: Avoid unnecessary timeout identifier churn in TimelineManager

[Joseph Pecoraro]

* SUMMARY
Avoid unnecessary timeout identifier churn in TimelineManager.

The _deadTimeTimeout can get churned thousands of times (4000+ on theverge.com) because a bunch of records are added at once.

Reduce the churn on the timeout identifier (<100), which also slightly reduces the amount of time spent in _resetAutoRecordingDeadTimeTimeout.

We could make the this._lastDeadTimeTickle = now + 10. And eliminate the "+ 10", thereby eliminating the add every check. But it felt less clear. Still the time spent in this was only ~5ms on a long recording on theverge, so not very important.

Magic number: a comment at the end of the line or a const on the line above would help clarify the 10.

I think putting the + 10 here makes more sense.
