Scheduled report windows

[jinghao]

Hi @csharrison and @michaelkleber !

A few weeks ago, we discussed the default attribution windows of 2 days, 7 days and (a configurable window up to 30 days). You mentioned that you only wanted the last window to be configurable, and wanted to keep the first two fixed.

I mentioned that 1-day and 7-days would be much more useful because it's much more common to have 1-day attribution windows in reporting products than 2-days.

@csharrison mentioned that the 2-day window was arbitrary and would be open to revising it, and suggested we discuss here, so here I am! I'd love to understand whether you have any concerns with replacing the default 2-day window with a 1-day window and how to make progress on this.

Thanks!

Maybe the best option here is to allow more flexibility to configure multiple windows. If the impressionexpiry implicitly determines the end window, it might make sense to have another field called something like earlyreporttimes which allows you to specify the other windows:

earlyreporttimes="86400000,604800000"

We would probably want to have something like day rounding to ensure that each window defines a period that is at least a day.

@johnivdel FYI for thoughts.
