Render template timeout

[Perfect-Web]

Describe the bug

If you try to run a template that uses the expand function or something else that is equally intensive inside the developer tools, it times out after 3s.
On the other hand, if you run the same template inside the node, it causes a memory leak which eventually crashes the core.

To Reproduce

No response

Expected behavior

There's no way to define a timeout when using the REST API to render a template.

https://github.com/home-assistant/core/blob/19c26b79afb08268286c5fdc93d0d00a8c6d52e2/homeassistant/components/api/__init__.py#L441-L457

The node would have to be refactored to use the websocket endpoint if a timeout needs to be introduced.
