Commit message

Add burst mode scan type

Description of the change

As a simple-scan user, I routinely scan documents unfit for the charger because of binding or because it is made of thick paper. As of now, we must use the Single scan type and reach for the scan button for every page. This patch introduce a new scan type that use the flatbed, like Single, but run in burst mode, ie, after a scan is complete, it will automatically start another scan so we don't have to reach for the scan button but we can concentrate on putting the next page on the flatbed. This allow for faster, more pleasant, scanning.

Great idea!

I've committed this with a few changes:
- Replaced some tab characters with spaces
- Renamed from burst to batch (seems the conventional name for this)
- Simplified a bit of the code.

I was wondering if it would be useful to have a configurable delay between scans in case you need more time to switch pages. What do you think?

Thanks!
