batman-adv: increase BLA wait periods to 6

If networks take a long time to come up, e.g. due to lossy links, then the bridge loop avoidance wait time to suppress broadcasts may not wait long enough and detect a backbone before the mesh is brought up. Increasing the wait period further to 60 seconds makes this scenario less likely.
