Title:
  Wizard can potentially wait forever on a buggy page

Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  If a wizard page never reports that it's ready to answer the question
  "should I skip this page?", the wizard will wait forever until it gets
  the answer.  Meanwhile, the user is presented with an empty page.

  We experienced this in vivid with ofono bug 1419675.  libqofono
  wouldn't report that SIM2 was done initializing.  So we'd just keep
  waiting.

  To reduce the severity of future similar bugs, the wizard should have
  a sensible timeout.  So at least the user can continue.

  == Original bug ==

  After selecting a language, sometimes I'm left with a blank page.  I
  never see the next screen, which lets me pick my password.

  When this happened, I was running krillin, on vivid image 122.  I had
  a SIM in slot 2, but none in slot 1.  I've NOT been able to reproduce
  with a SIM in slot 1 instead of slot 2, which seems relevant.

  After reproducing many times, it will sometimes stop happening.  But
  after an image flash, it is rather reliable for a while.

  I've looked into this a bit on the wizard side.  It turns out that
  libqofono is never replying that the second SIM slot is "ready" which
  means it has finished initializing it.

  Now, the wizard probably should timeout waiting for that to be true.
  But libqofono should also provide that info.
