D16429: Rewrite of Scheduler planning

[Eric Dejouhanet]

  Go ahead and post, I can integrate it to this differential.
  
  **Issue Found:** When a job finishes its sequence after repeating, Scheduler re-evaluates the plan before starting the next job. However, the next job doesn't start immediately even if it scheduled to start asap. There is a delay that is added, possibly equal to the last job single-repeat duration.
  
  **Enhancement Planned:** Jobs which exceed their completion time are marked "Invalid", they should be marked "Complete" instead, as Scheduler is done with them.
  
  **Unrelated Issue Reproduced:** Alignment unsuccessful, keeping adding sync points without being able to make the mount move. The situation doesn't result in an alignment failure, it seems the failure count is reset when a solution is found, which doesn't help in this situation. I had "Reset Mount Model Before Each Job" set, so that situation either appears during a single alignment procedure, or the option is not entirely functional.
  
  **Unrelated Issue Reproduced:** PHD2 lost connection with the camera for more than its configured timeout, and stopped guiding. Guide module did not detect the failure to attempt to recover, and Capture simply stayed in the guiding deviation loop. Scheduler wasn't informed of anything.
  
  **Unrelated Issue Reproduced:** Upon meridian flip, PHD2 guiding was not properly aborted, and PHD2 detected that mount started slewing and aborted guiding by itself. This had the unexpected consequence of disconnecting the external guider on the Guide module side. When the external guider is disconnected, the Guide module is unable to reconnect by itself, and subsequent guiding requests are failing.
  
  **Unrelated Issue Reproduced:** Guide module is unable to clear PHD2 calibration when "Always Reset Calibration" is set.
  
  **Unrelated Issue Reproduced:** After meridian flip, option "Use Differential Slewing Instead Of Syncing" is unexpectedly moving the mount in the opposite direction it should slew.
