This adds the possibility to use a datepicker in the modal after clicking the start button to schedule when the kiln should start running by itself automatically. The timer is implemented in the backend and the start is triggered there so closing or refreshing the browser does not stop it. In the state when it's "waiting to start", the frontend state changes so that the glowing timer icon is now shown instead of the previously unused door icon. The state is also displayed as SCHEDULED and above it the info states when it's due to start: "Start at: ..."

Interesting. I've always done this through the api, using cron or at to start the job. |

@jbruce12000 I implemented this PR in cooperation with my friend @marktilles who had this idea for the delayed start of the kiln and has been in contact with you previously. What follows is the description of this implementation.
This PR adds the possibility to use a datepicker in the modal after clicking the start button to schedule when the kiln should start running by itself automatically followed by clicking the newly created appropriate button.
The timer is implemented in the backend and the start is triggered there so closing or refreshing the browser does not stop it.
When the kiln start gets scheduled, the frontend state changes so that the glowing timer icon is now shown instead of the
previously unused door icon (hope that's ok). The state is also displayed as SCHEDULED and above it the info states when it's due to start: "Start at: ..."
Now this state is shown whenever the page is opened in the browser until the kiln starts running. To cancel the scheduled run, one just needs to click the "Stop" button in the same way as when stopping the running kiln.
Would appreciate if you and anyone else could review and test this. Any feedback is welcome and I can make changes as needed.
