[HttpStress] massive timeouts around HTTP/3 stress test startup

[antonfirsov]

This happened 3 times in the past 4 weeks, main and release/7.0 are both affected:

• 09/24
• 09/26
• 10/10

Looks like sometimes the stress server is unresponsive for a long time around startup in these cases.

I've seen this happening on local runs as well; we suspected it might be related to #55979

[ManickaP]

Triage: we should investigate to confirm if it's #55979. Either way, we should at least put a mitigation in stress to not to fail the test in this case.

Unfortunately, this is still happening. I see 4 occurrences out of 22 runs in the last 30 days. It wasn't this frequent before, is it possible that #84793 made it worse? Or could it be a server-side issue? /cc @ManickaP
