Andrew Deason 90726f837c tests: Check if vlserver died during startup
Currently, the volser/vos test starts a local vlserver to communicate
with. If the vlserver dies during startup, the spawned 'vos'
subprocesses take forever to run, since we need to wait for our Rx
calls to timeout for every operation.

To make it less annoying to detect and investigate errors that might
cause the vlserver to fail during startup, check if the vlserver dies
right away. We already sleep for 5 seconds when starting the vlserver,
so just check if the pid still exists after those 5 seconds.
