To decrease the odds of hitting the rate limit ceiling rapidly on a buddy list with a large number of ICQ buddies, space out our requests for the ICQ Status Note. This has 2 beneficial effects: 1. Request notes over a longer period of time, avoiding hitting the rate limit immediately. 2. Coalesce multiple requests for the same note into a single request. Previously, we were making n*2 to n*4 requests, where n is the number of ICQ contacts with status notes, at signon, as purple_parse_oncoming is called multiple times for each one.
