Add proactive inter-batch pacing to avoid rate limit hits

Rather than relying on reactive 65s retries, each semaphore slot is held
for at least MinBatchIntervalSeconds (20s). With 2 concurrent slots that
limits throughput to ~3 batches/min × ~2k tokens = ~6k output TPM,
safely under the 8k/min limit.
