The governor stores the sampling interval in both milliseconds and
jiffies, although delayed work only needs the latter.

Convert interval_ms to jiffies in the module parameter setter and store
it directly in sg_ctx.delay. Initialize the default delay to HZ and
remove the redundant interval_ms member and initialization conversion.

Keep the read-only interval_ms parameter by converting the delay back
to milliseconds in its getter. Use the same conversion for the startup
message. Both now report the effective interval after jiffy rounding.
