    Try to remove lock when exception thrown in cron function (bug #685640) · ae76bab0

    If a cron function causes an exception for whatever reason, then the
    cron will stop, but the lock isn't removed. The job then isn't tried
    again for another 24 hours.
    
    Instead we should try to set the next run time and remove the lock.
    Cron functions that run frequently, but fail due to some temporary
    problem, will not be forced to stop for 24 hours.  On the other hand,
    very frequent cron functions that throw exceptions on every run will
    be spammy.
    
    Obviously, this change has no effect on cron functions that fail due
    to script timeouts, out-of-memory errors, or which exit for any other
    reason.
