Describe the issue
It seems that the timeout argument to new cdk.aws_stepfunctions.StateMachine is only applied when the definitionBody is a ChainDefinitionBody. The only reference I can find is here: https://github.com/aws/aws-cdk/blob/ebfaf89e6a9018d19eb29dcb42f2a1ec93e81d57/packages/aws-cdk-lib/aws-stepfunctions/lib/state-machine.ts#L486
This behavior is unclear from the documentation: https://github.com/aws/aws-cdk/blob/ebfaf89e6a9018d19eb29dcb42f2a1ec93e81d57/packages/aws-cdk-lib/aws-stepfunctions/lib/state-machine.ts#L127
For users that provide a .asl.json definitionBody, this can cause unexpected behavior.
