Retry starting EVE qemu process if it is stuck before boot #996

Sometimes qemu can hang even before the EVE kernel starts to boot. This is likely caused by some issue in qemu or in the host system. Since it is not EVE-related, we will try to re-start qemu 5 times before giving up.

Let's see if this helps (I cannot reproduce the problem locally so don't know if this will help with the stuck qemu)...

It seems that this does not help. If we get a "faulty" runner, it does not matter how many times we restart, qemu is always stuck.
