Scheduled tasks survive a throwing fire handler
A scheduled task whose run fails with an error no longer disrupts scheduling: one-off tasks stay saved and recurring runs are skipped

What
Starting a scheduled task, or one that was missed earlier, is now protected against errors. If the code that runs it fails:
- A one-off task stays in
scheduled_tasks.json so a later session can run it.
- That run of a recurring task is dropped and not retried.
The error is reported with any text you typed removed.
Why
One failing task no longer takes scheduling down with it. A one-off task you set up is kept, not lost.
