Remove or increase the Scheduler repeat limit (currently capped at 100)

Watsonx Orchestrate Scheduler currently has a hard limit of 100 repeats per scheduled task. For production deployments where agents or flows need to run on a recurring basis (e.g. daily), this means the schedule silently expires after approximately 3 months, requiring a manual re-configuration.

Current workaround: Manually re-scheduling the agent/flow every time it reaches the 100-repeat cap. This is unsustainable for production environments and introduces risk of downtime if the expiry goes unnoticed.

Proposed solution: Either remove the repeat limit entirely or significantly increase it (e.g. 10,000+), with an option for indefinite scheduling. An optional notification before a schedule expires would be very helpful.

Benefits: Enables clients to rely on scheduled agents for ongoing automated workflows without manual intervention. Without this, the Scheduler cannot be used in production.

Users impacted: In our case, this directly impacts client deployments that depend on continuous automated workflows.
