fix(cli): notices refresh doesn't respect the --no-notices flag (#19226)

The `--no-notices` flag is only being considered for actually displaying the notices, but not in the refresh step, used to mask latency.

Also handling request timeout on the `Promise` level. If the promise doesn't resolve within the time limit, resolve with an empty array, no matter what.

Fixes #19201.
