test: Add hack to work around stuck services and failing first calls

The first rootless call often gets stuck or fails.
In such case we have alert banner to start the service (or just empty state).
A real user would just hit the button so lets do the same as this is always getting
back to us and we waste too much time reporting to podman with mixed results.
Examples:
    containers/podman#8762
    containers/podman#9251
    containers/podman#6660
