[PATCH 1/2] media/rc/imon.c: make send_packet() delay configurable

[Kevin Baradon <kevin.baradon@gmail.com>]

Some imon devices (like 15c2:0036) need a higher delay between send_packet calls.
Default value is still 5ms to avoid regressions on already working hardware.

Also use interruptible wait to avoid load average going too high (and let caller handle signals).
