[JENKINS-58488] Restart from stage does not work with timeout step

If a stage contains a timeout step, then the "Restart from stage" feature does not work. Any attempt to restart the stage is just skipped by the timeout step.

A quick look to the timeout step code shows that it stores the time limit (end) as an absolute timestamp. So if the restart stage happens after that fixed time limit has passed then this issue is visible.
