Subject: [VMware] change default max wait time to 15s (#774)

If cloud-init is enabled on VMware platform, cloud-init will wait until
its configuration file is ready and currently the max wait is 90
seconds by default. With our test, this configuration file should be
ready within 1 second, so change it to 15 seconds for better
performance. Also update the documentation about how to change the
default value in cloud-init configuration file.
