Description

Allow time step and bounds to be specified in "HH:MM:SS" format

The current seconds integer timestep input format is hard to read. The "HH:MM:SS" format is easy to read.

Proposed solution

datetime already has a converter from "HH:MM:SS" format to seconds, or we can make the individual model compatible.

Research direction

Start by locating the time-step and bounds inputs and the existing datetime converter mentioned in the issue, then trace how those values reach the individual model. Check how current seconds-integer inputs are validated and used. Done means both inputs accept "HH:MM:SS" while preserving existing seconds behavior, with relevant tests passing.
