[PATCH] tests: Fix qemumonitorjsontest deadlock when the machine is under load

[Peter Krempa <pkrempa@xxxxxxxxxx>]

When doing the qemumonitorjsontest on a machine under heavy load the
test tends to deadlock from time to time. This patch adds the hack to
break the event loop that is used in virsh.
