DalSoft.Hosting.BackgroundQueue - lightweight Hangfire alternative: background queue + dynamic cron scheduler

A very lightweight .NET background-jobs library: an in-memory background task queue (a replacement for HostingEnvironment.QueueBackgroundWorkItem) plus a dynamic cron scheduler you can add, reschedule and remove jobs on at runtime - no restart.

Per-job DI scope, optional bring-your-own durable store. A focused, low-dependency alternative to Hangfire for in-memory, single-instance scheduling and queuing.
