This commit adds a brief 0.1-second sleep delay immediately after spawning node processes (rcp, cli, and mtd types) in the expect test harness. Under high CPU load on GitHub Actions runner VMs, the PTY file descriptors can take a fraction of a second to fully initialize. If commands are sent immediately after spawn without delay, the initial expect match can fail with an instant timeout. This triggers duplicate retransmissions in wait_for, leaving extra "Done" strings in expect's PTY read buffer. The leftover "Done" strings desynchronize subsequent assertions, causing tests to match cached output instead of waiting for actual command execution (e.g., sending "diag stats" during an active "diag send" command, which fails). Adding a 100ms delay gives the PTY and child process enough time to fully initialize and stabilize, avoiding instant timeouts and subsequent test harness desynchronization.
What is OpenThread?
OpenThread released by Google is... 
...an open-source implementation of the Thread networking protocol. Google Nest has released OpenThread to make the technology used in Nest products more broadly available to developers to accelerate the development of products for the connected home.
...OS and platform agnostic, with a narrow platform abstraction layer and a small memory footprint, making it highly portable. It supports both system-on-chip (SoC) and network co-processor (NCP) designs.
...a Thread Certified Component, implementing all features defined in the Thread 1.4.0 specification, including all Thread networking layers (IPv6, 6LoWPAN, IEEE 802.15.4 with MAC security, Mesh Link Establishment, Mesh Routing) and device roles, as well as Border Router support.
