selftests: nft_nat: ensuring the listening side is up before starting the client
The test_local_dnat_portonly() function initiates the client-side as soon as it sets the listening side to the background. This could lead to a race condition where the server may not be ready to listen. To ensure that the server-side is up and running before initiating the client-side, a delay is introduced to the test_local_dnat_portonly() function.
