Description
When ic-agent is used inside a rust web worker environment, the sleep function panics as the window object is not available. This PR fixes the sleep function so it uses the appropriate
selfobject instead (more here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Web_Workers_API/Using_web_workers#web_workers_api)How Has This Been Tested?
Its a bit difficult to test this e2e as I encountered this panic when my worker was rate limited. I can create a minimal web worker which specifically uses sleep written like this if you feel its necessary.
