Keep quiet for the setuid search the engine now runs to completion (hq issue 361)

The node-engine's search has no bound any more: it runs at idle priority
and judges from its last complete, fresh result. The controller's quiet
while an agent account waits is the engine's rootsearch.Quiet, not the
old fifteen-minute bound, and the node-engine is pinned at its pull
request.
