[Float] Suspend unstyled content for up to 1 minute

acdlite · acdlite · commit 14dee24cb18d · 2023-03-31T15:36:17.000-04:00
We almost never want to show content before its styles have loaded. But
eventually we will give up and allow unstyled content. So this extends
the timeout to a full minute. This somewhat arbitrary — big enough that
you'd only reach it under extreme circumstances.

Note that, like regular Suspense, the app is still interactive while
we're waiting for content to load. Only the unstyled content is blocked
from appearing, not updates in general. A new update will interupt it.

We should out what the browser engines do during initial page load and
consider aligning our behavior with that. It's supposed to be render
blocking by default but there may be some cases where they, too, give up
and FOUC.
