utils/QubesWatch: use timers to retry QubesDB watch registration

Browse Source 
QubesWatch._register_watches is called from libvirt event callback,
asynchronously to qvm-start. This means that `qubesdb-daemon` may
not be running or populated yet.

If first QubesDB connection (or watch registration) fails, schedule next
try using timers in libvirt event API (as it is base of QubesWatch
mainloop), instead of some sleep loop. This way other events will be
processed in the meantime.
