tests: retry os.rename on PermissionError failure in lttng_live_server.py

On the Windows CI jobs, we get random failures like:

The PermissionError exception is raised when trying to move the port
file from its temporary location to its final location, where the bash
script expects it to appear.

I don't understand the root cause of the issue.  When exiting the `with`
scope, the temporary file is supposed to be closed, and it should be
fine to move it.  I suppose it's possible that something in the Windows
kernel hasn't completely finished using the file when we try to move it.

Implement a wait-and-retry scheme as a (bad) workaround.
