The CANDaemon needs to relinquish control of the "bus" long enough for DigiDash can request a non-automatic PID code.

For now, we're going to trust that the Linux kernel balances resources for threads sufficient enough for our purposes. If it comes to light that it doesn't, this issue will be revisited.

Confirmed that send_pid still functions as intended when CANdaemon is running in the background. The underlying OS handles scheduling both Bluetooth socket read/write operations just fine.
