Fix: The Daily Activity event would not properly trigger while in a cron job

Update highlights

This version reworks the way daily credits operations are handled.

In previous versions, the following events would be handed the first time a user performed an activity on your forum that day:

• Daily
• Interest
• Paycheck
• Taxation

For the last 3, it would "catch up" if the user had not logged in for a significant amount of time.

This turned out to sporadically cause a problem wherein these events could be multiplied if users had multiple tabs open, and all of them performed some kind of action at the same time (such as refreshing a chat box every second). This only affected sites that had background operations that ran every second, otherwise collision protection would kick in. Still, the number of affected sites was greater than 0, and as such a solution was needed.

In v5.8, this code has now shifted to a cron-triggered rebuild job. What this means in practice is that those events will now be shifted to rewarding users for yesterday's activity at the end of the day, rather than giving them today's reward the first time they login. The upside to this is that there's no chance of collision, no matter how many tabs they open, because it's all handled by XenForo's cron job system.

This release is flagged as Beta because it's received limited amount of testing, but it should be functional enough for a production environment.
