ContractClient: default `timeoutInSeconds` not working

[chadoh]

Describe the bug The default timeoutInSeconds is (supposed to be) 10. This is either not getting set correctly, or it needs to be longer. Copying from the comment that @shan-57blocks left at https://github.com/stellar/soroban-cli/pull/1258#issuecomment-2078700843:

After upgraded to the latest version of ts-bindings generated by soroban-cli 20.3.4, the signAndSend function always returns txTooLate error. The previous ts-bindings version works fine. (I'm interacting with the example increment contract deployed to testnet). @chadoh Could you please take a look? Thanks.

Here is the demo repo: https://github.com/shan-57blocks/soroban-ts-bindings-playground

Here is the error message:

What version are you on? 11.3.0

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Clone the repo created by @shan-57blocks: https://github.com/shan-57blocks/soroban-ts-bindings-playground/tree/main
2. Exercise the call to incrementClient.increment
3. See that it times out

I have seen reports that this is happening with other contracts and methods, too. Running against a local network and contract might help with debugging, if it can be reproduced in that context.

Expected behavior The default timeoutInSeconds should work most of the time.

Looks like there's another report of this on Discord. This issue seems mildly urgent: is someone investigating?
