Expiring jobs

[greenbigfrog]

Thanks for all the work that's gone into this.
One feature I'd like to see added would be expiring jobs. If a job can't/isn't processed within/until X, it won't run.
Example: if I add a job to the queue, I only want it to run within the next 30 seconds. If the worker is not running or doesn't process the job within 30 seconds, it shouldn't work the job.

I'll look into implementing this myself sometime the next week.

@greenbigfrog thanks for looking and jumping in!

This idea fits into a broad category of a pre and post-exec hooks I've been eyeing adding. 🌵 Eventually, I'd like to move the throttling code into a pre-exec hook as well, which can be included into a Job class as needed.

Have you started work on the hook stuff yet somewhere?
