Pádraig Brady 09fcf494a1 tests: make tests requiring a delay to pass, more robust
* tests/init.cfg: Introduce a retry_delay_() function to
repeatedly call a test function that requires a delay.
This delay can now be shorter for the common case on fast
systems, but will double until a configurable limit it reached
before failing on slower systems.
* tests/dd/reblock: Use retry_delay_.
* tests/misc/cat-buf: Likewise.
* tests/misc/stdbuf: Likewise.
* tests/tail-2/F-vs-rename: Likewise.
* tests/tail-2/flush-initial: Likewise.
* tests/tail-2/tail-n0f: Likewise.
* tests/tail-2/wait: Likewise.
* test/dd/misc: Comment that delay is needed to trigger failure.
