Allow Minus on "Minutes in Advance Dine in Close"

Description / Background

Some restaurants are implementing the "Minutes in Advance Dine in Close" feature. This feature serves to set the latest time users can make a reservation.

In some cases, restaurants want to allow users to make reservations even if they exceed the available schedule. the Minutes in Advance Dine in Close feature doesn't have the ability to order exceed the available schedule. This poses a constraint as some users may wish to book last-minute slots or even exceed the available schedule.

This new feature allows the admin to set the Minutes in Advance Dine in Close setting to have minus value. This setting allows the user to book even if the booking time has already started.
