Add expected_reset optional argument to ConsoleBase::ensure_spawned(), ConsoleBase::restart_uboot() and ConsoleSandbox::restart_uboot_with_flags() so that it can handle a reset while the 1st boot process after main boot logo before prompt correctly.

Changes in v5:
- Rename parameter to expect_reset and update the description to clarify the reset will happen between main boot and the command prompt.

Didn't I already comment on this patch? Why did it come back?
Dear Simon,
The discussion is in https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/uboot/patch/164491595065.536855.9457820...
You suggested: "We have a means to avoid actually doing the reset, see the reset driver."
We need a real reset on the sandbox and no fake reset as already said in the referenced thread.
Why?
The fake reset is there for use by tests. We don't need this load of Python code at all for sandbox. We should worry about it later.
Well, isn't this going to make the tests more sandbox-centric then, and then need changes later to be able to test on real hardware?
Yes, but it keeps the sandbox case simple. At present the sandbox tests can run within U-Boot (see the 'ut' command) and I very much want to keep it that way. That is, after all, why I wrote the reset driver.
While tests on real hardware have value, I hope that all logic bugs are found on sandbox.
Regards, Simon
