"""
Calls state_check() every interval_ms until it returns a positive value, or
until a timeout is exceeded.
Returns True if state_check() returned True within the timeout.
Arguments:
state_check -- Functor that returns a Boolean success value, and takes no
arguments.
timeout_ms -- The total timeout in milliseconds. state_check() has to
return True within this time.
interval_ms -- Sleep time between calls to state_check(). Note that if
interval_ms is larger than timeout_ms, state_check() will be
called exactly once, and then poll_with_timeout() will still
sleep for interval_ms milliseconds. Typically, interval_ms
should be chosen much smaller than timeout_ms, but not too
small for this to become a busy loop.
