gnu, nongnu and gnu-alpha all start at 03:42 and 15:42 UTC. This change gives each one its own slots:
The two mirrors that read ftp.gnu.org are six hours apart. No slot is shared with tlnet, dropbox or github. A run takes 1 to 3 minutes, and up to 11 minutes with reconcile.
On the first tick after the deploy, each moved job fires one time for its latest new slot if that slot is after the slot that the state records. Between 03:42 and the first new slot, the tick logs a "clock behind" warning for the moved jobs and does not fire them. This is not an error.
The healthchecks.io crons of nongnu and gnu-alpha must change with this deploy:
