PurpleAir fetch is very intermittent

[salmundo11]

regardless of the value of updateFreq, fetch happens very inconsistency and rarely.

e.g., with updateFreq set to 900:

[5/25/2020, 10:25:51 PM] [PurpleAir Air Quality] [Fetch] PurpleAir pm2_5 is 2.5, AQI is 10, Air Quality is Excellent.
[5/26/2020, 8:01:08 AM] [PurpleAir Air Quality] [Fetch] PurpleAir pm2_5 is 0.31, AQI is 1, Air Quality is Excellent.
[5/26/2020, 12:12:05 PM] [PurpleAir Air Quality] [Fetch] PurpleAir pm2_5 is 0.56, AQI is 2, Air Quality is Excellent.
[5/26/2020, 2:49:00 PM] [PurpleAir Air Quality] [Fetch] PurpleAir pm2_5 is 0.21, AQI is 1, Air Quality is Excellent.
[5/29/2020, 1:18:47 PM] [PurpleAir Air Quality] [Fetch] PurpleAir pm2_5 is 5.41, AQI is 23, Air Quality is Excellent.

This is by intent: It does actually poll every 15 minutes with your setting of 900, but it only REPORTS a new AQI value if the value has changed from the last reported value.

It does? It looks like it only polls on demand, but uses the updateFreq to prevent it requesting more often than this.
