Add a 'skip' to next interval option, i.e. a shortcut / button [Feature request] #68

Hi, long time fan and user of the tomatobar (love the simplicity and straightforwardness of the design!). Surprised this hasn't been requested yet but to explain the need of the feature with an example - I find myself sometimes stopping the counter when I want to take longer breaks outside of the usual interval, or when something unexpected happens that forces me to stop altogether, i.e. meetings, friends showing up, to go for a spontaneous walk or to just break out of the countdown for a while.

In these instances, when I resume I would sometimes like to skip (i.e. fast forward) to the short rest interval part or maybe to the 3rd interval in a set but I can't seem to see a shortcut or feature for this. Having a skip feature would allow the flexibility for those users that often stop (for reasons) and for those typical use cases where the user does stop, but would like to resume where they stopped in the set, i.e. allow fast-forwarding and move along intervals.

Thank you, and thanks for creating the app!
