Running org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift and entering an hourly
interval returns an error that the shift specification is invalid.

For example, entering +8h returns:

user-error: Invalid shift specification +8h

I have also tested with just 8 and with .+8h.

The documentation for org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift states that:

> If the entry has a timestamp, the user will also be prompted for a
> time shift, which may be a repeater as used in time stamps, for
> example ‘+3d’.

And the Info page for Repeated Tasks states that:

> You can use yearly, monthly, weekly, daily and hourly repeat cookies
> by using the ‘y’, ‘w’, ‘m’, ‘d’ and ‘h’ letters.

So, as I couldn’t find a reference to this limitation anywhere, I
believe this is a valid bug.

I'm guessing h was left off for this command because it didn't seem too
useful.  But something like below should work (untested), and I don't
see any particular reason to not support h.
