delay to 30 seconds total for a single command.
Experiments performed by jujube(T4T) suggest changing the sleep interval
to an exponential style backoff would increase our chances of recovering in
situations where the previous lock is held by a previous instance of
vboxmanage whos instance data hasn't been cleaned up within vboxsvc yet.

a bug that was fixed last night which prevented the wrapper from properly
reporting its checkpoint time to the CC. The lack of checkpoint information
for the job would have prevented the CC from rescheduling the job and removing
it from memory. Now it can so the extra shutdown each scheduling period
should not be needed.

VboxSVC.exe is normally launched by svchost.exe which only contains environment
variables defined by the system. In the BOINC sandbox environment we want to
add VBOX_USER_HOME to redirect reading/writing configuration files to a
different directory. What happens if we launch it ahead of making any calls to
VBoxManage which would cause the OS to launch it? If we launch it, it should
inherit our environment block and work just like it works on Linux and the Mac.
This is such a simple solution, why didn't I think of it sooner?

Some more work will be required if there is ever a need for more than
one port. But this should work for now. This should successfully
