gdm: Compress fingerprint failures events using a timeout

When a fingerprint failure event happens we may also soon receive a
conversation-stopped event with an error message (such as in the case
we hit the MAXRETRIES value), but this is going to be ignored in case we
are too quick in consider the first failure a verification-failed event
because that implies disconnecting from all the events and then ignoring
such signals.

To prevent this, add a small timeout before failing the verification so
that if we get a further event we will process it.
