tests: make various timeouts more robust
* tests/init.cfg (retry_delay_): Describe
the backoff method used.
* tests/ls/readdir-mountpoint-inode: Add a timeout
to the stat call to eliminate the chance of hangups.
* tests/mv/i-3: Change the timeout required to pass
from 1 second to a range of .1s - 3.1s.
* tests/rm/dangling-symlink: Likewise.
