io_u: make rate-submit in inline mode even

In `inline` submit mode, threads wait until all previous IOs finish upon
reaching rate limits, which may exceed the expected wait time and result
in batch or uneven submissions.

Handle completion events in usec_sleep() when necessary and no longer call
io_u_quiesce() before sleeping in rate_ddir() to achieve smoother fix-rate
submission as in `offload` mode.
