media: video-i2c: more precise intervals between frames 

MLX90640 should ideally be working without a frame skip.
In short, if a frame is skipped, then half of a frame loses correction
information, having no way to retrieve its original compensation.

This patch improves the timing in three ways:

1) Replaced schedule_timeout_interruptible() to usleep_range()
The former "only ensures that it will sleep for at least
schedule_delay (if not interrupted)", as pointed out by mchehab.
As a result, the frame rate could lag behind than the actual capability
of the hardware
(Raspberry Pi would show a few Hz slower than set value)

2) Calculation based on us, not jiffies
Jiffies usually has resolution of 100Hz, and possibly even cruder.
MLX90640 can go up to 64Hz frame rate, which does not make sense to
calculate the interval with aforementioned resolution.

3) Interval calculation based on the last frame's end time
Using the start time of the current frame will probably make tiny bit
of drift every time. This made more sense when I didn't realize 1),
but it still makes sense without adding virtually any complexity,
so this stays in.
