scpi-dmm: add short measurement delay for 34465A 

With Keysight 34465A the VOLT:AC and FREQ functions keep suffering from
USB timeouts and pipe errors. Add a 10ms delay between initiating the
acquisition and checking for completion before fetching the result.

The weird thing is that when successful responses are seen after
temporary failure, enlarging the delay does not make them go away.
Instead the USB errors keep moving to a different spot. Measurements do
arrive though, so this is just annyoing but not a blocker.

Experimentation suggests that 200ms timeouts reduce the probability of
these USB communication errors. But if functions tend to respond that
differently, are delay time specs per MQ required? The implementation of
the driver currently assumes a single delay spec.
