Session open: a random 0–180 minute delay, kept across restarts

The day's delay was 1–20 minutes. It is now 0–180, so the evening open
lands anywhere from 5:05 to 8:05 PM CT. The day's roll is saved as a
setting: with a three-hour window, a restart during the wait (an update, a
crash) would otherwise roll again and could start the session early.
