/// A piece that keeps the building's hours, and changes with the day inside
/// them.
///
/// A piece on a wall is in a building, and buildings have hours. A schedule is
/// both halves of that. It names the parts of the day, which the sketch reads
/// to decide what to draw, and it says which parts have nothing on screen at
/// all, which takes the picture away and lets the display sleep until the doors
/// open again.
///
/// The sky here is one pair of colors per part of the day, and the piece slides
/// from one pair into the next over the last stretch of each, so the change
/// arrives the way light does rather than as a switch. `scheduledPeriod` gives
/// the name and `scheduledProgress` gives how far through it the day has got.
///
/// Both reads work at a desk as much as on a wall, so this can be worked on at
/// any hour. Going dark is the half that needs the installation: only a piece
/// that owns its window can take the screen away. See
/// `Docs/Output/Installation.md`.
