Support random offsets when using ranges with a step value in cron. This extends the random range syntax to support step values. Instead of choosing a random number between the high and low values, the field is treated as a range with a random offset less than the step value. This can be used to avoid thundering herd problems where multiple machines contact a server all at the same time via cron jobs. The syntax is similar to the existing range/step syntax but uses a random range. For example, instead of "0-59/10" in the minutes field, "0~59/10" can be used to run a command every 10 minutes where the first command starts at a random offset in the range [0,9]. The high and low numbers are optional, "~/10" can be used instead. Requested by job@, OK phessler@

Use absolute paths in pathnames.h. There is no longer a need to chdir(2) to the cron dir and cron(8) now changes to / via daemon(3). We no longer try to create/chmod the spool directories as they should be set correctly at install time. The setegid(crontab) has been moved to open_socket() so it is closer to the chmod(2) call that needs it. OK deraadt@ tedu@

Change cron from including all headers in every file to only including what each .c file needs. I have not removed cron.h since it will be used in a future clean up of the cron's .h files. OK nicm@

Remove the OK and ERR macros. They obfuscate the code and don't help legibility. (unix system calls use 0 for ok, but hundreds of other projects use 1 to indicate success.) Despite the name, many system calls (e.g., open) also return not OK values for success. It also cleans up some weird code like int crontab_fd = OK - 1; This diff is mechanical in nature. Later I will fix the bugs it reveals. ok deraadt

remove debug code. I think the level of debug code in cron is excessive for a program that has reached feature complete. If cron needs to provide more information to the user about its operational status, I think syslog would be more appropriate. (The debug flags also disable forking into the background, so they aren't even that useful for debugging a live system.) ok deraadt millert

Move atrun(8) functionality into cron(8) proper. This fixes the
long-standing annoyance that atrun's granularity is 10 minutes.
Most at jobs run with a 1 minute granularity. Jobs submitted via
"at now" or "batch" will run immediately. Includes a rewritten
cron(8) man page. at(1) will be integrated more closely into
cron at a future date.
Upgrading notes:
the atrun job in root's crontab should be removed.
the /var/at/spool directory is no longer used

Turn get_gmtoff into a macro for OSes with tm_gmtoff (like OpenBSD). Save the GMT offset in a global so cron_sleep can use it. This means the offset can only change in set_time() which is really what we want.
