X-Git-Tag: v9.2.0214^0

patch 9.2.0214: tests: Test_gui_system_term_scroll() is flaky

Problem:  tests: Test_gui_system_term_scroll() is flaky
          (after: v9.2.0208)
Solution: Fix test (Yasuhiro Matsumoto)

Remove timer-based screen check and use a simple command instead
of ping.  The timer could fire before ConPTY initialization was
complete, causing screenstring() to return an empty string.

Check screenstring() directly after the command finishes instead.
