Implement abort during delay when using cycle_time plugin

[philipstarkey]

Original report (archived issue) by Chris Billington (Bitbucket: cbillington, GitHub: chrisjbillington).

In PR #50, the "cycle_time" plugin, I did not implement handing the case where the user clicks the abort button whilst the experiment queue is waiting for the target time before running the next shot. Nothing is checking for the abort event whilst the queue is waiting, and this means the abort does not actually occur until after transition_to_buffered, which isn't what you want.

I believe this issue is actually resolved. The cycle_time plugin connects to the abort button here:

blacs/blacs/plugins/cycle_time/__init__.py

Line 97 in 2bd2aa6

inmain(self.BLACS['ui'].queue_abort_button.clicked.connect, self._abort)

I briefly tried it out as well and was able to abort shots during the added delay period.
