Suppose you have a job scheduled every minute.
The current time is 15:00:00 and for reasons outside our control it is set to 17:00:00, the job runs as expected and "Next" will be set to 17:01:00.
If the system clock returns to the correct time and so now is, for example, 15:01:00, when we calculate the duration of the timer here
cron/cron.go
Line 259 in bc59245
we will have something like 2 hours and then no job runs for 2 hours.
This patch fixes the issue. Thank you
