[LTP] [PATCH] syscalls/keyctl02: wait for last key to be garbage collected

Fixes: #409

This tests creates a lot of keys, which are revoked, but they may
not all be destroyed by the time test finishes. This can create
problems for subsequent tests which will hit quota limit and fail.

This patch adds loop, that periodically sleeps and checks if last
test key has been garbage collected yet.
