Description
### Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
There is an auto disconnect after queue is finished feature, but we have no control over that.
### What is your ideal solution to the problem?
It would be nice if we can set a time limit to auto disconnect from an active channel instead of it disconnecting immediately when queue is finished.
### How would this feature be used?
1. Play a song
2. Nothing is queued
3. Song finishes, bot doesn't disconnect until a set time limit, like 5 minutes.
4. A new song is queued up at like 3 mins, resetting that timer.

Research direction
Start by locating the existing auto-disconnect-after-queue-finished behavior and the channel playback lifecycle. Define how the configurable idle timer starts, how new queued songs reset it, and how the bot disconnects when it expires; done means the behavior is configurable and works for the described playback sequence.
