Description

We should support drivers starting at a specific time (i.e. not all at the begin of the day).

---

Implementation:

Constrain the min. arrival time at the route's first location:

```c++
auto index = model.Start(0);
auto* var = model.CumulVar(index, "Time");
var->SetMin(10am);
```

Research direction

Start by locating the vehicle-start handling and the model.Start and CumulVar("Time") entry points shown in the issue. Confirm how a route's first location currently constrains arrival time, then verify that a vehicle can begin at a specified time without changing other routes.
