type root password faster on ostree installs

Browse Source 
Summary:
Since we started using `type_very_safely` for typing the root
password, we starting hitting a race issue. If we complete the
root password spoke so slowly that the software deployment
process completes in the meantime, anaconda will wait until we
complete the spoke then immediately flip to the 'post-install
configuration' step, at which point access to the USER CREATION
spoke is blocked.

We don't hit this case on regular RPM installs or live installs
as the deployment phase still takes a while for both of those,
but we are sometimes hitting it for the Atomic ostree install
image, as the software deployment phase is pretty fast there.
We *could* just not bother creating a user and testing we can
log in as a user for that test, but I don't like that approach,
we *should* be testing that user creation and login works OK
for ostree installs. So instead, let's just type the root
password a bit less safely for ostree installs; this will be
more vulnerable to typing errors but hopefully will avoid the
race problem.

Test Plan:
Run a few Atomic installs, see if they hit the race.
Might need to run other tests at the same time, and you may not
be able to hit it, this is obviously dependent on the I/O of
the worker host...
