Subject: [PATCH 3/3] interop: Retry TCP connections to qemu-nbd.

The test interop-qemu-nbd-tls-certs frequently fails on slow (32 bit)
machines in Fedora Koji.  (Is crypto slow on these already overloaded
machines?)

As we cannot wait for a signal when qemu-nbd is ready start serving,
we have to use a sleep.  The current sleep is 5 seconds, which is not
long enough.  Making the sleep longer would work but is inconsiderate
for people using faster machines.  Therefore replace this with a retry
loop with exponential backoff.

I tested this with a simple wrapper around qemu-nbd which did:

  sleep 5; exec /usr/bin/qemu-nbd "$@"
