to start thread after a certain amount of time, add delay option
in the json file in microseconds

---
V4: remove multiple setting of wait_before_start

V3: make use of wait_before_start to store the delay param specified
    in task property

V2: this is an update on the previous patch, handling the comments

- make delay as usec instead of using the nano sec structure
- make thread delay & spacing mutually exclusive

this patch is based on 17be4548
