anaconda-diskroot: wait before dying on media check fail

If a modesetting driver has been loaded by the time the media check happens, halting the system (as we currently do immediately if the check fails) blanks the screen, which is confusing for the user. This adds a warning message and a 12-hour wait before the system is eventually halted, so the user can see the media check failure and (presumably) reboot and fix the medium. It also tweaks the text of the failure message not to call it a "CD check", since it's not 1998 any more. Resolves: rhbz#2246410 Signed-off-by: Adam Williamson <[email protected]>
