git-p4: fix freezing while waiting for fast-import progress
As part of its importing process, git-p4 sends a `checkpoint` followed immediately by `progress` to fast-import to force synchronization. Due to buffering, it is possible for the `progress` command to not be flushed before git-p4 begins to wait for the corresponding response. This causes the script to freeze completely, and is consistently observable at least on python-3.6.9. Make sure this command sequence is completely flushed before waiting.
