Description
When using the --static option while deploying a notebook with a long-running cell (i.e. time.sleep(30) or longer), the rendering will timeout and deploy will fail. The timeout should be removed for rsconnect-python:
--ExecutePreprocessor.timeout=None

Research direction
Start at the deploy notebook --static entry point and trace how notebook rendering configures nbconvert. Verify the timeout behavior with a notebook containing a cell such as time.sleep(30); done means static deployment completes without the default execution timeout.
