Introduce OpenBSD cron ~ notation
A random value (within the legal range) may be obtained by using the `~'
character in a field. The interval of the random value may be specified
explicitly, for example "0~30" will result in a random value between 0
and 30 inclusive. If either (or both) of the numbers on either side of
the `~' are omitted, the appropriate limit (low or high) for the field
will be used.
This would be a welcome feature to avoid spike in load on cicd servers:
