-----------------------+-----------------
 There were tests available in the legacy branch for running cron.  These
 were disabled because requiring wp-cron killed the unit tests.

 Let's revive this and split cron.php into its own folder with a class for
 scheduling crons and another class for running crons.

 Considerations:
  * Running crons needs to be done with process isolation -- this is quick,
 but should this be excluded from the default suite like ajax?
  * This patch uses a hack for preventing wp-cron.php from die-ing.  Should
 we patch core to use wp_die so this can be hijacked with a hook (like
 other unit tests)?
