waitForGate() function altered; now useable for all linear actuators

At the beginning of "Automated_Driveway_Gates.ino", you can #define ZeRGBa if you would like to use that widget in Blynk. If not, just delete that definition and the LED strip will be controlled by the menu option as in previous releases.
waitForGate() function has been updated to work for any size or speed linear actuator. The timing for this function does not work as strictly as hoped though, because of the slight delay from Blynk. So if you would rather, you can uncomment the commented section in this function, and comment the uncommented section. The variable "tim" must be changed as it controls for how long the gate(s) open / close. The variable "tim" is an arbitrary value, not a measurement in any way.
