e2e: Optimize waiting for application to start

[Timer]

We had to switch from

$ grep -q 'The app is running at:' <(tail -f $tmp_server_log)

to

while true
do
  if grep -q 'The app is running at:' $tmp_server_log; then
    break
  else
    sleep 1
  fi
done

I would appreciate a bash expert one-lining this again with cygwin support.

I'm going to remove this from a milestone because it's of no true importance.
