/**
 * Inform Ultimate Cron about cron jobs.
 *
 * To add additional/multiple cron jobs from a custom module, provide
 * a default configuration in the module with the needed settings.
 * Example: ultimate_cron.job.custom_module_cron.yml
 *
 * Note that the result of this hook is cached.
 *
 * @return array
 *   Array of cron jobs, keyed by name.
 *    - "title": (optional) The title of the cron job. If not provided, the
 *      name of the cron job will be used.
 *    - "file": (optional) The file where the callback lives.
 *    - "module": The module where this job lives.
 *    - "file path": (optional) The path to the directory containing the file
 *      specified in "file". This defaults to the path to the module
 *      implementing the hook.
 *    - "callback": (optional) The callback to call when running the job.
 *      Defaults to the job name.
 *    - "callback arguments": (optional) Arguments for the callback. Defaults
 *      to array().
 *    - "enabled": (optional) Initial state of the job. Defaults to TRUE.
 *    - "tags": (optional) Tags for the job. Defaults to array().
 *    - "settings": (optional) Default settings (plugin type) for this job.
 *      Example of a job declaring some default settings for a plugin called
 *      "some_plugin":
 *      'settings' => array(
 *        'some_plugin' => array(
 *          'some_value' => 60,
 *        ),
 *      ),
 *    - "scheduler": (optional) Default scheduler (plugin type) for this job.
 *      Example of a job using the crontab scheduler as default:
 *      'scheduler' => array(
 *        'name' => 'crontab',
 *        'crontab' => array(
 *          'rules' => array('* * * * *'),
 *        ),
 *      ),
 *    - "launcher": (optional) Default launcher (plugin type) for this job.
 *      Example of a job using the serial launcher as default:
 *      'launcher' => array(
 *        'name' => 'serial',
 *        'serial' => array(
 *          'thread' => 'any',
 *        ),
 *      ),
 *    - "logger": (optional) Default logger (plugin type) for this job.
 *      Example of a job using the cache logger as default:
 *      'logger' => array(
 *        'name' => 'cache',
 *        'cache' => array(
 *          'bin' => 'mycachebin',
 *        ),

/**
 * The following hooks are invoked during the jobs life cycle,

 * cron_pre_launch
 * cron_pre_launch(*)
 * cron_pre_run
 * cron_pre_invoke
 * cron_post_invoke
 * cron_post_run
 * cron_post_launch(*)
 *
 * Depending on how the launcher works, the hook_cron_post_launch() may be
 * invoked before or after hook_cron_post_run() or somewhere in between.
 * An example of this is the Background Process launcher, which launches
 * the job in a separate thread. After the launch, hook_cron_post_launch()
 * is invoked, but the run/invoke hooks are invoked simultaneously in a
 * separate thread.
 *
 * All of these hooks can also be implemented inside a plugin as a method.
