Title: Add timeout for whois command

From time to time there can be a problem with to get data from whois servers. In this situation fail2ban hangs on sending mail and don't work anymore. I added bash timeout command from coreutils to control this thing and think may be useful for another users (there is bug #2752775 on sf.net).
