Benjamin Berg e075d37590 tests: Check that a verify operation can be immediately restarted 
This excercises the path where we early-report a result and the
VerifyStop call must wait for the operation to complete intenernally.

Note that this test cannot fail right now due to the FpImageDevice
internal code still trying to hide the deactivation delay internally.

README 

fprintd
=======

https://fprint.freedesktop.org/

Daemon to offer libfprint functionality over D-Bus
Might eat your kangaroo.

Written in C.

Licensed under the GPL version 2 or any later version (see COPYING).

A PAM login module is included in the 'pam' directory.

API use cases
=============

- User wants to use the fingerprint reader, and enroll
  his fingerprints, or remove some fingerprints from the database

- Administrator wants to enroll fingerprints for a particular user,
  or remove fingerprints for a particular user

- Laptop/desktop authentication:
  * Check for fingerprint devices
  * Check whether a particular user has any fingerprints enrolled
  * Verify a fingerprint for a particular user, or, if the device
  supports it, verify that the fingerprint matches against
  any of the fingerprints enrolled

- Point Of Sale authentication (in a bar, the fingerprint reader is
  used to see who accesses a particular point of sale/till, in place
  of PIN code authentication and/or tokens)
  * Given a list of users, verify which one has scanned their finger
