Summary

Updating the stable release prior to doing the update can take
a long time if the image hasn't been updated for a while, and
the upgrade download process itself can take a long time. If
the screen blanks out in either case, either the following
needle match may fail (if we're waiting for a needle) or 'still
screen' may be detected early (if we're waiting for a still
screen), so let's disable screen blanking to avoid it.

Test Plan

Run the upgrade tests and see if they work.
