Add ability to pause and/or reduce fetching intervals

[remstos]

Hi,

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

In our app we want to be able to pause as much as possible all network consumption to optimise for network usage.
For exemple, we have a mechanism in place to pause uploading logs and analytics events.
Similarly, we’d like to have CustomerIO stop fetching InApp messages updates during that time.
An additional improvement would be to at least reduce the polling interval.
In developement environment we’d also like to be able to reduce that polling interval as it doesn’t make sense to fetch every 10s.

Describe the solution you'd like

Ideally we would have a pause/resume method for the polling mechanism of InApp Messages
Optionally we could have a way to manually/temporarily override the polling intervals.

Describe alternatives you've considered
I’ve considered forking the SDK to manully reduce the interval to 1min

Thank you

Hey @remstos thank you for reaching out, this seems like a fair ask. I have added an internal feature request for it. I'll be able to provide more updates on what solution we have decided and tentative timeline for it.
