Add a flux command for waiting a specific time

Use case is a workflow where we use open-http
to POST records to an API. When working with large input data, we'd like to wait a short amount of time between each post to avoid creating too much load on the server. While this could be done with an additional option for open-http
, perhaps a generic wait
command, with the option to set the time would be the best approach?

Does wait
imply waiting for something? (Like wait-for-inputs
for instance.)
Maybe sleep
would be better? (Could also be a Fix function; see Catmandu.)
