FIX: Preveint recurring automations from running before start_date (#26963)
Some combinations of start_date and frequency/interval values can cause a recurring automation rule to either trigger before its start_date or never trigger. Example repros:

- Configure a recurring automation with hourly recurrence and a start_date several days ahead. What this will do is make the automation start running hourly immediately even though the start_date is several days ahead.

-  Configure a recurring automation with a weekly recurrence and a start_date several weeks ahead. This will result in the automation never triggering even after the start_date.

These 2 scenarios share the same cause which is that the automation plugin doesn't use the start_date as the date for the first run and instead uses the frequency/interval values from the current time to calculate the first run date.

This PR fixes this bug by adding an explicit check for start_date and using it as the first run's date if it's ahead of the current time.
