Workaround for dragging not starting on niri
niri for some reason known only to itself does not send any pointer
leave/data device enter/data source events when it accepts a grab. The
only event it seems to send is surface enter on the drag icon surface,
and that too it sends that event much later.

Handle this bonkers behavior by retrying the sync multiple times to
detect if niri has accepted the drag or not.

Fixes #10271
