loopy_wait() expects millisecond timestamps. However, Ubuntu Resolute
can use uutils date, where `date -u +%s%3N` returns seconds plus full
nanoseconds instead of a 3-digit millisecond field. This makes
busywait expire too early and can make vlan_bridge_binding.sh read a
stale operstate.
Fixes: 25ae948b4478 ("selftests/net: add lib.sh")

Changes in v2:
- Declare variables separately from command substitutions and propagate
timestamp failures, addressing ShellCheck SC2155.
