Description

Fixes #1864

Add's a configuration option to set the global autotype start delay. Previously it was hardcoded at 500ms which might be too quick for some people to release the global shortcut keys prior to typing beginning.

autotype-settings

How has this been tested?

Manually

Would it be possible to instead detect if any key is down and start only after the user has released all of them or throw an error after X seconds if they don't?

It would work faster for people who release the keys immediately and prevent all suppressed keys issues when auto type is starting.

EDIT: I guess this could be limited to only modifier keys as those are the ones causing trouble.

I thought of that, but implementing it for all three OS is a pain. I could easily do it for Windows and Linux.

Additionally implementing it for Windows and Linux would be nice, though.
