Kill whitebox crash test if it is 15 minutes over the limit (#8341)

Summary:
Whitebox crash test can run significantly over the time limit for test slowness or no kiling points. This indefinite job can create problem when this test is periodically scheduled as a job. Instead, kill the job if it is 15 minutes over the limit.
Refactor the code slightly to consolidate the code for executing commands for white and black box tests.

Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/8341

Test Plan: Run both of black and white box tests with both of natual and explicit kill condition.
