"all servers busy" dcc_lock_pause is hardcoded at 1 sec, could be tunable

[GoogleCodeExporter]

distcc 3.2rc1 SVN r755

The hardcoded 1 second dcc_lock_pause() when all servers are busy may pose an 
unnecessary throughput restriction for some configurations.

Attached patch makes the pause time tunable via a new env var 
DISTCC_PAUSE_TIME_MSEC.  The default remains set for 1 second.

The new environment variable should be documented in the "ENVIRONMENT 
VARIABLES" section of the distcc man page.
Could you please update the patch to also update man/distcc.1 to document the 
new variable?

Also put spaces around the '*' in 'pause_time_ms*1000'.
