Description

Improve the imaging reservations - Automatically start the image capture process when a reservation reaches the end-time for both imaging reservations and long-term reservations. This will provide a way for image creators not to loose any work due to the reservation expiring.

The initial steps would be at the end time, instead of timing out, send a notice to the user. Automatically start the image by inserting either a new image/imagerevision or updating the version number in imagerevision. If new name the image in some format yet to be determined.
