Dexie-cloud addon websocket client-side rate-limits:

Decrease pause period from 10 to 1 second when more than 10 WebSocket messages per 10 seconds limit is reached.
+ simplify the loop + make it confifurable with const variables in top of the module.
Remove the panic pause of one minute if getting into the limit over and over. Instead let it do it but at most 10 messages per second.
If we see this becoming a problem we could enforce a limit on the server instead.
