Repository update can fail in a way that would lead to an
immediate reschedule of the update. A common reason would be
a failure to update the `nextcheck` column of the `repo` table.
This leads to mirror and repository servers getting constantly
hammered.

Since there is no reason to have a smaller update interval than
an hour anyway, we just enforce this as the minimum in all
regular updates. This should catch all possible errors leading
to a continuous series of requests.

Fixes xbmc#24829.
