Similar to commit 690043b95c18 ("selftests: drv-net: rss: Add
retries to test_rss_key_indir to reduce flakes"), implement the
retry mechanism for test_rss_context_overlap. This gives the test
more attempts to distribute the flow evenly, as the chance of
flow skewing to one queue is high.

Example failures:

 # Check failed 5288 < 7000 traffic on main context (1/2): [2727, 2561, 8961, 
6648]
not ok 1 rss_ctx.test_rss_context_overlap

 # Check failed 6710 < 7000 traffic on main context (2/2): [9280, 5217, 5358, 
1352]
not ok 1 rss_ctx.test_rss_context_overlap

Ran test_rss_context_overlap and test_rss_context_overlap2
over 1,000 consecutive runs with no failures.
