(core) Update the current time in formulas automatically every hour

Summary: Adds a special user action `UpdateCurrentTime` which invalidates an internal engine dependency node that doesn't belong to any table but is 'used' by the `NOW()` function. Applies the action automatically every hour.

Test Plan: Added a Python test for the user action. Tested the interval periodically applying the action manually: {F43312}
