Idea: option for delay before rending predictions

Description of the new feature/enhancement

It could be possible for the user to set a "delay" in ms or even seconds for when predictors should appear. Currently, the intent is to show them in near real time, if I understand correctly. A configurable option such as "PredictorDelay" would let the user dictate that predictions should not appear until after there is no activity for the prompt for a specified period. The intent of this option would be to address any users who find the current approach to be a distraction.

I am opening this issue to request community feedback, since it is not clear whether this option is desired.

Thank you.

This essentially is asking for asynchronous rendering of the prediction results.
Today, the rendering of prediction results is synchronized with the rendering of the user's typing. The idea is to make it asynchronous, so that the user can keep typing, and the prediction result can show up when the user pauses typing. That will be more similar to the intellisense experience in VSCode editor.
