hermes-agent/tests/cron/test_ticker_stall_60703.py

"""Regression tests for #60703 — cron ticker silently stalls after gateway restart.

Three fixes under test:

1. ``_jobs_lock()`` bounds its cross-process flock: when another process holds
   ``.jobs.lock`` indefinitely, acquisition times out, logs at ERROR, and falls
   through to in-process-only locking — instead of blocking the calling thread
   (and, transitively, the cron ticker heartbeat) forever.

2. Claim freshness checks are bounded on both sides (``0 <= age < ttl``): a
   ``fire_claim``/``run_claim`` stamped in the FUTURE (clock/TZ skew across a
   restart) is treated as stale/overwritable, not eternally fresh.

3. ``_execute_job_now`` no longer mislabels paused/disabled/missing jobs as
   "already being fired".
