[autotest] network_WiFi: raise dwell time thresholds

network_WiFi_BgscanBackoff and network_WiFi_OverlappingBSSScan often
fail excessively with warnings like this:

  "Significant difference in rtt due to OBSS"

It appears that some Wifi drivers have a dwell time closer to 150 ms, so
it's trivially easy to be waiting for one channel to finish scanning
while traffic is pending, and then see >150 ms latency. Let's push this
to 250 ms, to give appropriate margin for a variety of reasonable
drivers. This will still catch excessive delays (e.g., if the driver
continues to process several more channel scans while data traffic is
pending) but avoid complaining about reasonable delays for a single
channel scan.

Also, it doesn't make a lot of sense to have different threshold
parameters for network_WiFi_BgscanBackoff and
network_WiFi_OverlappingBSSScan, so make them the same.

Let's monitor this one. I'm not sure if these Marvell boards reliably stay within the new threshold.
Status: Fixed (was: Assigned)
Daisy has been solid since then. Overall, the test is fairly stable across platforms. There are some odd failures which could be worth looking into someday, but nothing as bad as this.
