Make interact test exit if connections EOF on us (e.g. timeout) #318

Is this what is happening: Your local computer ssh connects to a board, and that connection times out?

I just need a way to recreate the problem.

Think OpenGear idle timeout. We just want the developer to know when it's about to happen. Basically we can track the last send in base.py:send() and print a message either

1) If we send again and more than a certain period of time has passed or 2) Use a separate thread to print a warning

To let the developer know, or if Jenkins fails because if issue we want to be able to scan the log.
