PULP_CBC_CMD timeLimit Status

[fyx99]

Details for the issue

What did you do?

I used the maxSeconds Argument for PULP_CBC_CMD solver and it worked. But the status is often times (not all the time) set to Optimal.

What did you expect to see?

I expected Pulp set it to 'Not solved' when terminating early - as it is also printed in the logs.

What did you see instead?

I saw status Optimal. But in the logs it says Result - Stopped on time limit
