Merge pull request #288 from BlackLight/dependabot/npm_and_yarn/platypush/backend/http/webapp/async-2.6.4

Bump async from 2.6.3 to 2.6.4 in /platypush/backend/http/webapp

Resolve "@cron decorated function are off after DST change"

Closes #217

See merge request !13

The cron scheduler has been made more robust against changes in the
system clock (caused by e.g. DST changes, NTP syncs or manual setting).

A more granular management for cronjob events has been introduced, now
supporting a `TIME_SYNC` event besides the usual `STOP`. When the cron
scheduler detects a system clock drift (i.e. the timestamp offset before
and after a blocking wait is >1 sec) then all the cronjobs are notified
and forced to refresh their state.

Bumps [async](https://github.com/caolan/async) from 2.6.3 to 2.6.4.

If Platypush is supposed to work also without a manually created
`config.yaml`, and the HTTP backend is enabled by default in that
configuration, then Flask and companions should be among the required
dependencies.

The UI is now much faster, the build process completes within one minute
(it used to take >15 minutes), and the size of the bundles has been
reduced by ~70%.
