tests: explicitly wait for the PG to finish before looking for capture file

Rather than only using time-based method of periodically checking
whether the pcap file appeared, first check that the packet generator
has stopped. To make this change fail-safe, have a 5-minute timeout
on this activity, just in case the things go terribly wrong.
