There are some problems with the schedule resource in how it parses and applies
ranges:
* Resources may span days, even though the code attempts to prevent this.
The code ensures that the lower limit hour is less than the upper limit hour,
but does not check the minutes and seconds. As a result, a schedule of the form:
<pre>
schedule {
maint: range => "1:2:3 - 1:0:0"
}
</pre>
will result in an upper limit of 1AM tomorrow. In other words, we are
spanning days, even though the code tries to prevent it.
* If minutes or seconds are omitted, they default to Time.now's minutes and
seconds.
If you specify a schedule range of the form: "1:59:59 - 1" and Time.now's
minutes and/or seconds are less, the same behavior as above can result. As an
aside it seems more intuitive that we default minutes and seconds to 0, even
though it wouldn't prevent this scenario.
