Don't sync every cycle

Because `led_sync` is a major cause of slowness, do not sync every cycle. In
most cases, it is pointless to sync 100 times a second, about 60 - or even 30 -
may be more than enough.

For this reason, introduce a timer, and a settable delay: we'll only call
`led_sync` once the delay's up. It can be set to 0 to call it every time, but
defaults to 16 (for about 62 syncs/sec), as a safe bet.

This speeds the loop up dramatically, except for the few exceptions where sync
is called.

Fixes #1.
