[PATCH] t5562: chunked sleep to avoid lost SIGCHILD

If was found during stress-test run that a test may hang by 60 seconds. It supposedly happens because SIGCHILD was received before sleep has started.

Fix by looping by smaller chunks, checking $exited after each of them. Then lost SIGCHILD would not cause longer delay than 1 second.

Submitting as proper patch. Note: I believe it does not relate to other issues
