libct: reduce the delete delay

When using unix.Kill to kill the container, we need a for loop to detect
the init process exited or not manually, we sleep 100ms each time in the
current, but for stopped containers or containers running in a low load
machine, we don't need to wait so long time. This change will reduce the
delete delay in some situations, especially for those pods with many
containers in.
