[Ovmsdev] OTA Automatic updates (middle of the night)

Sorry for not being clear, it's early over here. My point was:

Unmounting the SD card should be a separate process, usable without doing a complete shutdown.

Regarding a fixed delay, I would rather proceed to the actual unmount  as soon as the "unmounting" event has been processed by all listeners, i.e. on the
event's done callback. Unmounting listeners just need to close their files, no need to introduce delays there.

Regards,
Michael
