Prefer set a numeric limit of seconds than using the word 'few'.

For instance, in my box the test `cl-seq-test-bug24264' in
test/lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-seq-tests.el
takes 7 s.
With an explicit numeric threshold is easier to decide whether this test
must be tagged as expensive or not.

In following patch i define a few as 2-3 seconds.  Other people might
prefer 4-5 or even higher.
Please, suggest a proper value to consider a test as expensive.

I think 2-3 sec is negligible, and 7 sec is not long enough to annoy.
10 sec or more is beginning to sound like it comes close to "too
long", and 20 sec is definitely too long.
Thank you.  Now is clear.
Are you OK with keep the sentence as it is now?
I mean, keep: 'some few seconds'.
