The i686-linux test has never worked and I wrote the VM test only on
x86_64-linux to verify whether hardening mode works. I don't know why it
fails on i686-linux, but that might be because the inner VirtualBox VM
we're starting during the VM test doesn't use hardware virtualization.
Closes#5708.

Tested on my machine using the virtualbox NixOS VM test.

This is espacially cruicial when it comes to Nix 1.9, where we even have
a more restrictive /nix/store. In any event, VirtualBox in hardenend
mode doesn't have to check the /nix/store path, because it's read-only
on NixOS systems. So this check would not introduce more security but
more hurdles, thus I'm removing it (of course _only_ for /nix/store).

Sometimes, keys aren't properly recognized the first time, so in order
to make sure they get through, always resend the key again on retry.
In this case the worst that could happen is that the VM is started over
and over again, but never in parallel, so that's fine because we're
checking for successful startup 10 seconds after the keypress.
