Allow schedule adapters to quit immediately (don't check for .alive) about testing HOT 10 CLOSED

Release Script of Birthday adapter failed because of this behaviour. Just checkout tag 1.1.2

https://github.com/klein0r/ioBroker.birthdays/tree/v1.1.2

See https://github.com/klein0r/ioBroker.birthdays/actions/runs/1905833107 for details

fixed in 2.5.5

• once: When you start the adapter then the process is executed, but controller allows it to exit anytime and still consider the adapter as "ok". This is mostly used by "www only" adapters that maybe want to update stuff on start
• subscribe: When I know correctly the adapter-konfig contains a state where controller subscribes too and when it is changed then the process is started once. No idea if we have such an adapter currently at all

from testing.

Ok I'll update the check to include both of these.

Can you give me a link to the affected adapter? Makes it easier to verify that the test changes work.

I've never used those adapter modes. But is this also related to mode "once" or "subscribe"?
I don't even know how these are supposed to work 😄 Just a question

from testing.

@Apollon77 ?

from testing.

but to answer question: most likely once and subscribe also end themself when they did their work

from testing.

@AlCalzone The question was related to this code: https://github.com/ioBroker/ioBroker.js-controller/blob/9ce695a3355a5f2e59532c070a55fdb76e0185b3/packages/adapter/src/lib/adapter/adapter.js#L8932-L8943

subscribe, schedule and once are handled in the same way - so maybe testing should allow the stop for all there types, too.

Just tested the new version - works perfectly! Thanks a lot 🚀
