[OE-core] [PATCH 5/5] oeqa/runtime/syslog: Add delay to test to avoid failures

On a loaded builder we've seen the log message not make it to the log file
before the ssh command completes. Add a short delay to try and ensure
this does happen. There is unforunately no way to flush syslog in all
cases we test.
