Enable 6 second block times for people chain #308

This is an excerpt from #266. It aims to enable 6-second block times for people parachain only.

If I'm not missing anything, the people parachain is the only parachain not affected by paritytech/polkadot-sdk#3268, and thus, 6-second block times may be enabled without breaking something.

This PR was tested locally using the kusama-local relay chain. The time of the session within which the runtime upgrade was enacted expectedly deviated, but other than that, no problems were observed.

This seems pretty conservative. What is the tradeoff with higher values? More forks?

IMO in general we should on Kusama be a little more aggressive with parameterization. If that doesn't apply to this value, ignore :).

IIUC higher values don't make real sense if we're targeting 6 seconds with velocity == 1. I mean, we can set it higher, but we'll still be getting 6 seconds %)

Encointer communities could benefit from 6s block time because the
network is used for IRL point-of-sale or person-to-person transactions

Encointer is unaffected by
paritytech/polkadot-sdk#3268 as its pallets
have since ever based time on block timestamps

The parameters are copy-paste from people, as introduced by #308
