* Generally increase timeouts for tests that have recent transient
failures
* Change any test that relied on `btest-bg-wait -k` since that's never
going to play with with CI systems. Instead, we always need to have
a well-defined termination condition in the test itself (and most
already did, so didn't really need the `-k` flag anyway).
This change standardizes threading formatter error handling and moves
the remaining error calls to be warnings instead.
This is in line with already existing code - in most cases warnings were
raised, only a few cases raised errors. These cases do not differ
significantly from other cases in which warnings are raised.
This also fixes GH-692, in which misformatted lines prevent future file
parsing.
This commit also moves the FailWarn method that is used by both the
config and the ascii reader up to the ReaderBackend. Furthermore it
makes the Warning method of ReaderBackend respect the warning
suppression that is introduced by the FailWarn method.
