We start the open timer to cancel the connection attempt after a while. Once nbd_do_establish_connection() has returned, the attempt is over, and we no longer need the timer.
Delete it before returning from nbd_open(), so that it does not persist for longer. It has no use after nbd_open(), and just like the reconnect delay timer, it might well be dangerous if it were to fire afterwards.
