Subject: [PATCHv2 net] selftests/net/lib: update busywait timeout value

The busywait timeout value is a millisecond, not a second. So the
current setting 2 is too small. On slow/busy host (or VMs) the
current timeout can expire even on "correct" execution, causing random
failures. Let's copy the WAIT_TIMEOUT from forwarding/lib.sh and set
BUSYWAIT_TIMEOUT here.

Fixes: 25ae948b4478 ("selftests/net: add lib.sh")

v2: add fixes flag. update possible failures.
