Give the Windows MMTimer test a better chance of passing
The default scheduling on windows seems fairly erratic or is at least in the VM that I'm running these tests on, so increase the timing slack a bit so the test has a better chance of passing. It is still quite easy for it to fail though, especially if you for instance manipulate the terminal window somehow while running the tests but it does not really matter in any case as this test serves its purpose in testing the PBD::MMTimers API.
