I'd like to try to manually run restorecon and watch it, but I don't know exactly what the command line was.

restorecon -R / -e /run -e /proc ...?

Tried 
rpm -q --scripts selinux-policy-targeted-3.14.5-38.fc32.noarch
But couldn't figure it out from that.

Yes, some selinux updates should come with "warnings" that it may take a long time to complete.
This can take quite a bit of time depending on circumstances.

I have a slower system and even with an SSD the update took about 30 minutes.

Updates rarely, if ever, really hang.  Killing updates can result in incomplete operations which may
not be  immediately apparent.
