Subject: [PATCH] ci/nixpkgs-vet: try to fix race

This is another attempt at fixing the annoying nixpkgs-vet errors in CI,
which just throw with `error: SQLite database '...' is busy`.

The assumption is that this happens while initially setting up the state
directories. nixpkgs-vet runs `nix-instantiate` on both the base and the
head commit and these two could interfere.
