Syncthing is the BEST! Help me detect "Up to Date" with REST

Feature

@rlpowell Your script looks like it serves a similar purpose as the wait-for-idle command of my syncthingctl utility. Here’s an excerpt from its --help:

wait-for-idle, -w
  waits until the specified dirs/devs are idling
  --dir, -d [ID]
    specifies the directories, default is all dirs
  --dev [ID]
    specifies the devices, default is all devs
  --at-least, -a [number]
    specifies for how many milliseconds Syncthing must idle (prevents exiting to early in case of flaky status)
  --timeout, -t [number]
    specifies how many milliseconds to wait at most

  example: syncthingctl wait-for-idle --timeout 1800000 --at-least 5000 && systemctl poweroff
           syncthingctl wait-for-idle --dir dir1 --dir dir2 --dev dev1 --dev dev2 --at-least 5000

The utility is using the event API Jakob mentioned.
