selftests: nft_nat: ensuring the listening side is up before starting the client

[ Upstream commit 2067e7a00aa604b94de31d64f29b8893b1696f26 ]

The test_local_dnat_portonly() function initiates the client-side as
soon as it sets the listening side to the background. This could lead to
a race condition where the server may not be ready to listen. To ensure
that the server-side is up and running before initiating the
client-side, a delay is introduced to the test_local_dnat_portonly()
function.

Before the fix:
  # ./nft_nat.sh
