Research direction

Start by tracing the workflow reset handling in the Temporal service and identify where execution timeout settings are read or applied. The issue provides no file or test names, so first locate reset-related entry points and existing timeout tests; done means reset can set or override the workflow run/execution timeout for both running and completed executions.
