cron expressions are now allowed on synthetic canaries. Similar to app-autoscaling and autoscaling and other modules, the synthetic Schedule class should support a static cron method that takes in cronOptions.

I think we can (and should) talk about moving Schedule to core. I tried that in #9250 and perhaps we can revive that conversation.

Use Case

Syntactic sugar and to offer the same user experience across modules.

Proposed Solution

Here's how its done in application autoscaling:

Other

The current work around is to use Schedule.expression('cron(* * * * *)').
