[VDSM] loop device tests fail again on jenkins

We have random failures of loop device tests on jenkins (see example
bellow).

Barak commented that losetup -f /path does not work sometimes in the CI
but I don't recall what it the alternative way to get a loop device.

We need a reliable way to create a loop device for vdsm tests. What
is the recommended way to do this?

Until we have a reliable solution I'm going to mark this test as broken
on ovirt CI:
https://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/86241/

Please report if you see other tests fail with this error - typically:

Error: Command ['losetup', '--find', '--show', '/tmp/tmp17Wqri/file']
failed with rc=1 out='' err='losetup: /tmp/tmp17Wqri/file: failed to
set up loop device: No such file or directory\n'
