The TPCH import roachtest has been timing out for quite a while. Running it by hand, it appears it
is making progress when it times out, which suggests it has become slower since the timeouts were
picked, which seems to be supported by comments claiming it used to run in 3h with 8 nodes. Exactly
why it is slower and how to fix it is something that will require further study, but in the meantime
its constant failures aren't useful and contribute to overall test flakiness. Until we have a chance
to dig into this further, this removes the 4 and 32 node configurations and gives the remaining 8-node
test 50% longer to complete.
Release note: none.
