selftests: openvswitch: retry instead of sleep
There are a couple of places where the test script "sleep"s to wait for
some external condition to be met.
This is error prone, specially in slow systems (identified in CI by
"KSFT_MACHINE_SLOW=yes").
To fix this, add a "ovs_wait" function that tries to execute a command
a few times until it succeeds. The timeout used is set to 5s for
"normal" systems and doubled if a slow CI machine is detected.
This should make the following work:
$ vng --build \
--config tools/testing/selftests/net/config \
--config kernel/configs/debug.config
$ vng --run . --user root -- "make -C tools/testing/selftests/ \
KSFT_MACHINE_SLOW=yes TARGETS=net/openvswitch run_tests"
