[OE-core] [PATCH 1/1] qemurunner: Remove the timeout in run_serial

[mariano.lopez at linux.intel.com]

From: Mariano Lopez <mariano.lopez at linux.intel.com>

Sometmes when there is high load in the server the
commands executed in the target take a lot of time
to complete and this lead to incorrect dump files or
empty files. This is caused because run_serial has a
timeout of five seconds when running the commands in
the target.

This change removes the timeout and just keep reading
the socket until it finds the prompt from the target
or when the socket is not ready to be read.
