Tests: SteamGridDB deadline check no longer flakes on Windows' coarse clock

Compare the deadline passed on with the caller's own deadline instead of a
fresh time.monotonic(), which failed on windows-latest with
5.000000000000028 > 5 (CI run 38200136884).

-file during the key exchange, before any login, and is stopped as soon as it
-has. Every other kind of contact is ruled out on the command line, ahead of

-or remote command (`-N`), no terminal, and `-F none`. Through a ProxyJump host

-no local command (ProxyJump's own ssh would take `ForwardAgent` and
-`LocalCommand` from `~/.ssh/config`); it still logs in to the jump host as
-configured. Every word of that ProxyCommand is quoted for the shell that runs it
-(and `%` doubled for ssh's own tokens), the forward is `[%h]:%p` so an IPv6
-headset works, and an IPv6 jump host is passed bare with its port. Through a ProxyCommand from `~/.ssh/config`, or several jump hosts,
