Scheduled Time renders as relative time, so a task whose time has passed reads "3 minutes ago" while its state is still Planned. That reads as overdue when the task is only waiting for the next orchestrator pass. Adds a tile above the Scheduled Tasks table showing the time remaining until the next run, the time it is due, how many of the listed tasks that run will pick up, and how many are already being worked on. The cadence is derived client-side from the fixed Start-UserTasksOrchestrator cron (0 */15 * * * *). Every IANA UTC offset is a whole multiple of 15 minutes, so those boundaries land on the same instants in the browser's local clock. The counts subscribe to the query cache the table already populates, so they cost no extra request and follow the Show System Jobs toggle. The two counts are reported separately because they mean different things. Once an orchestrator claims a task it leaves Planned for Pending, so it stops being due; counting only what is due left a claimed task showing alongside a bare "no tasks due", which reads as though nothing is happening.

The scheduler page shows scheduled tasks in relative time, a task where the scheduled time has passed for example shows "3 minutes ago" with the state of "Planned" which to an unexperienced CIPP user reads as overdue or a problem with CIPP - when in reality it missed the last orchestrator run by a small margin.. I know this causes no end of confusion for MSPs and even myself at times..
This PR aims to address these issues by adding a tile above the Scheduled Tasks table showing the following:
