Next run in Pipeline schedules shows past time

Description

So, when a schedule is scheduled to run at an interval that's not on par with the default cron job of Sidekiq, the Next run shows a past time. For example I set the schedule every 30min, but Sidekiq is scheduled to run jobs every 12h.

Proposal

When the schedule is smaller than Sidekiq's interval, show when the actual next Run will be with a tooltip next to it explaining the situation.

removed feature proposal label

This is a design mistake which we should fix soon. The fact that Axil, UX and others don't understand this feature from the get go should be fixed.

Improves this a bit: !11476 (merged)

@zj In the previous implementation we did show actual run date, so this seems to me to be a regression in functionality.

changed milestone to %9.2

So if we did this before, we should definitely fix it. But as a user, it's still going to be confusing if the next run date doesn't match my expectations. How can we make the UI clearer about the granularity of jobs? If we're already parsing when the jobs run, can we show that information directly? /cc @ayufan @dimitrieh

@markpundsack We updated schedule to run once an hour, as we have monitoring for that. The granularity is much better now. I think that over time we can try to have an even more robust schedule.

@ayufan So is the full solution to this regression to re-add the column for actual run date?

@brycepj There is a #real_next_run method on the pipeline schedules. That should absolutely be used.

@ayufan Yes, granularity is better, but there's still room for confusion. e.g. I specify something runs at 5:15, but next run shows 6:00 because we happen to check only on the hour. How is the user going to understand this?
