out_data_decide_throttle(): timeout instead of hard limit.

Instead of managing max_visits, check the time every N visits. This avoids edge
cases where max_visits is large but the chunk frequency slowed down, which would
causing the "..." pulse to show for a very long time. It's more important to
show output at reasonable intervals than to avoid calling os_hrtime().
