- PR #55117: docs(cron): fix bundled skill doc to say 600s inactivity timeout not 3-minute hard interrupt (fixes #55038)

A documentation error described the cron scheduler as having a 3-minute hard interrupt per run, when it actually uses a 600-second inactivity timeout. These issues and PRs address correcting that inaccuracy.
