Neels Hofmeyr abd4b7d705 speed up python tests more than 10 fold by sleeping less 
The VTYInteract tests gave a constant sleep(1) grace period for the process to
startup. This caused the test to take minutes for no reason at all.

Add code to VTYInteract._connect_socket() 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.

When TCP socket debugging is switched on, also print how many connection tries
it took to connect the VTY socket.

Note that the openbsc python tests also add some sleep()s that also need to be
removed to benefit from this.

Building/installation:
sudo python setup.py install
If you prefer to have it cleanly removable, install checkinstall and run
sudo checkinstall python setup.py install
Alternatively, just run 'pip install --user -e ./'

Use
There are currently 3 scripts in this package:
osmodumpdoc.py - dump documentation (the VTY's "show online-help").
osmotestconfig.py - test that apps start/write with example configs
osmotestvty.py - test vty operations (currently, tests very few)

Each of these scripts imports a project-specific osmoappdesc.py,
which provides information about the available apps, configs, vty ports, etc.

Run the scripts with osmoappdesc.py in the current directory (preferred)
or with -p <the directory containing osmoappdesc.py>.
Remember that osmoappdesc.py may contain relative paths.

Example:
After install osmodumpdoc for openbsc's apps can be run by:
cd <your_source_dir>/openbsc/openbsc && osmodumpdoc.py

Libraries:
osmopy/obscvty.py - connect to a vty, run commands on it, see the result 
osmopy/osmoutil.py - code that's shared between the scripts

obscvty.py may be of general use. osmoutil.py probably isn't.
