console_login: sleep a bit before starting
Summary: This is a bit icky, but it's the easiest way to solve a problem I've seen a few times, the latest case being https://openqa.stg.fedoraproject.org/tests/1664 . In that test, _console_wait_login logs in to tty1 as user, then uefi_ postinstall wants to switch to tty3 and log in as root. When it does that, sometimes the check_screen loop in console_login gets hit before the display has actually switched from tty1 to tty3, so everything gets out of sync. An alternative would be to have root_console check that it's either logged in or at the correct tty before handing off to console_login, but that starts duplicating stuff, and it breaks in the case the target tty is logged in as a user and the login prompt is no longer visible... Test Plan: Check all tests run as normal, and maybe run UEFI tests a few times to see that the bug no longer happens (but it's hard to reliably trigger it anyway).
