ctrl_test_runner: speed up more than 10 fold by sleeping less

Similar to a recent patch in osmo-python-tests for VTY based tests, but this is
for the Ctrl tests.

The TestCtrlBase tests gave a constant sleep(2) grace period for the process to
startup. This causes tests to take minutes for no reason at all.

Add code to TestCtrlBase to try and connect right away, retrying up to three
seconds in .1 second intervals. This flies through most tests without any
sleep() at all.
