Currently the ACK wait window after a DM send is fixed, causing retries to fire before an ACK has had a realistic chance to arrive on congested or long-range links. This adds an ack_timeout_mult preference (1–10, default 1) that multiplies the entire computed timeout window, so user who are willing to wait longer can reduce retry spam without changing any other radio parameters.
Protocol changes validated on a T-Beam SX1276, should be backwards compatible but also would need clients (@liamcottle) to make it available in the app.
