Test #7: osal-core-test Failure

[yammajamma]

Describe the bug
Test #7: osal-core-test fails.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Note: this test was not readily repeatable, but it failed 2/10 times on this branch:
fix413-Add-Reference-To-Osal-Users-Guide-From-ReadMe

1. Go to branch stated above
2. Run build/exe/cpu1/osal-core-test

Expected behavior
The test failed 2/10 times. Specifically, failure is due to the code snippet noted below in osal-core-test.c, line 138 where a small time delay is supposed to occur and the child task is perhaps not exiting before the OS_TaskDelete call happens, so it's returning success.

Code snips
[ FAIL] 01.261 osal-core-test.c:138 - OS_TaskDelete, self exiting task

System observed on:
GNOME VM
OS: Ubuntu 18.04
Versions: OSAL 5.0.11.0

Additional context
This may be due to the VM delay.

It is great to see this reported by someone else on Linux. My macOS port has this too this is why I have commented out the test in the branch. See here.

Perhaps loop on the delay checking if the child task has exited.
