Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Currently there is a use case where the instance is to be shutdown via the OS "shutdown" command and started again after every four hours via the instance scheduler solution however after specifying the schedule, for example: scheduler-cli update-schedule --stack --name start-every-4-hours --periods everyday-00,everyday-04,everyday-08,everyday-12,everyday-16,everyday-20 --timezone --retain-running

The instance scheduler solution does not start the instance. It is understood that the 1.5.5 release of the solution only supports a single 1-sided start of the given day.

Describe the feature you'd like

To be able to specify multiple 1-sided starts on the given day.
