- Speed up many tests by waiting less time for nothing to happen.

- Speed up many tests by waiting less time for nothing to happen.

TestToolsBase ends its setUp with a call to main.wait_for_nirvana() to guarantee that the event queue is in a known empty state before each test starts. Because the event queue is always empty at this point, we don't really need to wait any real time (just need to wait for other code to set the state), and the default min wait time of 0.5 seconds is way too long.

Reducing this to 0.001 cut execution time of test_tools.py on my laptop by a factor of 7.
