Bug: Cyclic program runs faster than cyclic time

[PiotrKorkus]

Original report: https://github.com/qorix-group/inc_orchestrator_internal/issues/405

Describe the bug:

Assuming we run program with run_n(10) and cyclic_event is set to 10ms we expect that this program should run for at least 100ms.
We count time between execution of start action and beginning of the sleep in stop action.

    design.add_program("test", move |design, builder| {
        builder
            .with_start_action(JustLogAction::new("Start"))
            .with_run_action(
                SequenceBuilder::new()
                    .with_step(SyncBuilder::from_design("cyclic_event", design))
                    .with_step(JustLogAction::new("RunAction"))
                    .build(),
            )
            .with_stop_action(Invoke::from_tag(&stop_tag, design.config()), std::time::Duration::from_secs(10));

        Ok(())
    });

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. git switch piotrkorkus_timerevents_tests
2. cd component_integration_tests/rust_test_scenarios
3. cargo run -- --name basic.cyclic --input '{"runtime": {"task_queue_size": 256, "workers": 4}, "test": {"cycle_duration_ms": 10, "design_name": "sleep_after_cyclic_in_sequence", "run_count": 10}}'

Observed behavior:

Calculated time between start and beginning of the stop action is 97ms.

Expected behavior

Calculated time between start and beginning of the stop action is at least 100ms.

Occurrence:

Sporadic (very rare locally, sometimes in CICD)
