This adds support for date expressions such as +12h to
org-matcher-time. The regexp this function uses to parse such relative
expressions already includes the "h" character but doesn't actually
handle that case.

AFAICT org-mode commit ec921a2a68 ("Support hourly repeat cookies")
neglected to add support here.

 Furthermore you can specify a relative date by giving, as the /first/
-thing in the input: a plus/minus sign, a number and a letter---=d=,
-=w=, =m= or =y=---to indicate change in days, weeks, months, or
-years.  With a single plus or minus, the date is always relative to

Thanks for the analysis and patch.  This looks good to me.  Applied
(aeb9f036f), adding a changelog message to the patch and a TINYCHANGE
cookie (see <https://orgmode.org/worg/org-contribute.html>).

I've also followed up your commit with a commit that adds a few tests
for org-matcher-time, including for h.
