Add log message when worker lock timeouts get large (#18124)

This is to help track down a possible, but very rare, worker deadlock
that was seen on matrix.org.
In theory, you could work back from an instance of these new logs to the
approximate time when the lock was obtained and focus the diagnostic
efforts there.
