[meta-intel] [PATCH] utils: Fix wait in windows non-interactive shell

Hello everyone,

I submit a simple patch to fix an issue when the "flashall.bat" script 
is run inside a non-interactive shell (like for example if I spawn the 
bash script from another program).

Indeed, the timeout command on Windows can only be used inside an 
interactive shell. As a result, the flashall.bat batch script would fail 
without flashing the edison from a non-interactive cmd.

The fix is very simple: replace timeout by waitfor. waitfor works even 
in non-interactive shell and has the same behaviour as timeout in the 
current use case.

You can see the patch applied on my github:

Thanks for your time.

Best,


Malik
