UI support for "every nth" interval

[lovelldies]

It would be nice if the form supported options like */5 * * * * (every 5th minute).

I will try and work on this. But if you want a go at it yourself, go ahead and submit a PR!

@madsthom if I'm correct, this means providing the following:

• Every nth minute
• Every nth hours at X minutes past
• Every nth day at X hours and Y minutes. And so on.
  Is that accurate? Because that means an entire feature rather than minor enhancement.
  I'm happy to introduce a PR for just every nth minute!

This would be sufficient, at least for my use case.

@AhsanAyaz you can go ahead with this. 👍🏼 I am currently investigating a problem with the angular 14 upgrade.

@madsthom , already submitted a PR for this 🙂

Sorry, I totally missed that. 😁 - I will review tonight. 👍🏼

@AhsanAyaz / @madsthom thanks for looking into this!

@lovelldies: Please open this again if it does not work as intended.

Apologies for the late response. I was on vacation.

Also thanks for working on this. I noticed some unexpected behavior.

Selecting Minute and 5th generates an extra ? at the end. If I'm not mistaken, that seems to be an invalid cron format.

Also if I paste */5 * * * * into the textbox, it does not reflect in the selection form.

I shall re-open the request after I've heard your comments.
