Hmm it waits for the active port to change before checking the packet
counts, but that appears insufficient. I will make it wait for the
newly inactive link to stop receiving traffic, using a generous
polling timeout, which should fix this race condition.

When starting up teamd, it seems to check for a pid file, which
persists after using sigkill on the previous test run. So if we don't
kill teamd gracefully, then this file must be deleted manually. It's
strange that it didn't cause any problems on my end, but I can fix it
in the next iteration.
