Make reqContractDetails always working when R API invokes remote TWS

[diegoperoni]

Description

I noticed that when reqContractDetails requests many contracts (ex. option chain) and R invokes a remote TWS (not in the same machine) it doesn't work (socket error).

Expected behavior

I fixed the problem adding a small delay during the iteration. It works very well for me.
Hope it is useful!

Minimal, reproducible example

reqContractDetails <-
  function(conn, Contract, reqId="1", verbose=FALSE,
           eventWrapper=eWrapper(), CALLBACK=twsCALLBACK, ...) {
    
    .reqContractDetails(conn, Contract, reqId)
    
    if(is.null(CALLBACK))
      invisible(return(NULL))
    
    # create an internal eWrapper to *only* handle contract request data,
    # all else is discarded.
    eW <- eWrapper(NULL)
    eW$contractDetails <- function(curMsg, msg, timestamp, file, ...) {
      # custom contractData function called from processMsg
      twsContractDetails(version=msg[1],
                         #reqId=msg[2],
                         contract=twsContract(conId=msg[12+1],
