pytest: make hold_timeout.py test plugin release on a prompt, not timeout.

Avoids guessing what the timeout should be, use a file trigger. This
is more optimal, and should reduce a flake in test_sql under valgrind.

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit only changes test code. It replaces a fixed time delay in a test helper plugin with a file-triggered release so tests can control exactly when a fake invoice payment proceeds. There is no change to production code and no security issue.

Recommended action

No security action needed. This is a test-only change improving determinism and reducing CI flakiness.

Security signals we found

No strong security signals were identified.
