Previously, one of the io.systemd.Machine.Open() tests would invoke a command line via machined, and then check if it ran properly. This was implemented in a racy fashion: the client side would immediately close the pty fd allocated for the operation, thus triggering an immediate SIGHUP on the other side. Now, depending whether this client was quicker in closing or the server was quicker in executing the command line this was a race. Fix this comprehensively: let's first wait for the varlink operation to complete via the new "systemd-notify --fork" logic (because varlinkctl sends out READY=1 once handing off to --exec). Secondly let's use varlinkctl's --exec logic to invoke a process which keeps open the open pty until we kill it (we just use sleep for that). (Also add some more tests for the varlinkctl --exec stuff)
