test flake: occasional hang in falcon based tests #679

Description

@taspelund

It would seem that sometimes tests using falcon will occasionally hang indefinitely -- waiting on a manual job cancellation or a buildomat timeout to fail.
e.g.
https://buildomat.eng.oxide.computer/wg/0/details/01KMNFDTJVCTFY7728BSTC4XFB/zAyqoVXcFuT46hzSpuBpo3GaQ7rpHk7Dt2TNG5YZsDTe9Ocy/01KMNFF3HR8BRKC2ER3S4RAPFX

In this example, pfexec ./falcon-lab run trio-unnumbered was executed to kick off the falcon-lab test. The last log written by falcon was this:

2026-03-26T16:51:48.361Z	Mar 26 16:51:48.348 INFO cr2: logged out

which sat for about an hour and a half until I manually cancelled the job:

2026-03-26T18:24:32.741Z	job cancelled

This issue is to track similar flakes where falcon hangs for unreasonable amounts of time.
