add cgi_overload_delay tunable
Try to avoid a situation in which so many ikiwiki cgi wrapper programs are
running, all waiting on some long-running thing like a site rebuild, that
it prevents the web server from doing anything else. The current approach
only avoids this problem for GET requests; if multiple cgi's run GETs on a
site at the same time, one will display a "please wait" page for a
configurable number of seconds, which then redirects to retry. To enable
this protection, set cgi_overload_delay to the number of seconds to wait.
This is not enabled by default.
