Subject: [PATCH] Wait for the traffic refinement task by task instead of for
 five milliseconds

The handoff test failed under a loaded test runner when the refined pass needed more yields than a fixed 5 ms timer allowed; it now yields until the refined paint lands (bounded by a task count, not wall time).
