Increase Plugins API timeout, Check for Error conditions on plugin results

[dd32]

At present, 2 of the plugin listing tables doesnt check to see if valid data is returned from the !wordpress.org api.

In addition, I've increased the timeout to 15 seconds, as it was timing out while running on a high latency link.

See patch

Reviewed the patched, looked OK so far, made the checks more propper and tweaking according to coding guidelines.

with both patches, the API continues to work fine including with an external API handler.

(In [12742]) Add extra error checking to the Plugin Browser and Plugin API function. Fixes #11640
