Cataclysm-dda: Wielding could/should be a long action

Menitioned by @Coolthulhu in #20170:

now that wielding can take years, it should be a long action.

Wielding can now take an extremely long time if, say, the item has both SLOW_WIELD and NEEDS_UNFOLD.

Best exemplified by:

An AK-74M with a folding stock and sword bayonet takes 54 seconds by a skill 5 character.

<Bug> Balance

An AK-74M with a folding stock and sword bayonet takes 54 seconds by a
skill 5 character.

That's utterly insane, it does not take someone familiar with a folding
stock weapon a MINUTE to ready it for use.

That doesn't invalidate the issue though, anything over 6 seconds (one
default turn) is a candidate for being turned into a long action.

Lower SLOW_WIELD and NEEDS_UNFOLD times and then wait for the 1 turn = 1 second PR?
