cron-scheduler: add the raw NocoDB table screenshot

Step 5 re-audit - real screenshot showing the underlying table data
(50 records, all columns) that the Dashy heatmap is rendered from,
distinct from the two existing rendered-widget screenshots.

![The heatmap's "no fixed time" section expanded — 15 real jobs excluded from the grid, including the manually-triggered-only Kestra flows and the PBS prune job with its mismatched datastore name](../assets/cron-scheduler-no-fixed-time.png)
Both of those are Dashy's *rendered* view. This is the raw NocoDB table underneath it — the actual data structure, not the heatmap built from it:
![The real "Cron Scheduler" NocoDB table in grid view, showing all 50 records with their Job Name, Category, Schedule Expr, Est Start, Duration, Resource Tags, and Source columns](../assets/cron-scheduler-table.png)
## Why a manual inventory instead of an auto-discovered one
The harder, more "correct" version of this tool would auto-discover every scheduled job by querying Kestra's API, parsing every host's crontab and systemd timers, and re-syncing continuously. That was scoped down deliberately: auto-discovery across three genuinely different scheduling mechanisms (Kestra's API, systemd's timer units, cron's own format) is real engineering effort for a tool whose entire job is picking a good time slot for the next new job — a task that happens occasionally, not continuously. A manually-maintained table, kept honest by being checked at the one moment it actually matters (adding a new job), was judged the better return on effort than building and maintaining three different scanners for a problem that doesn't need real-time accuracy.
