[PATCH] Update org-clock-out-time when resolving clocks

Hello,

I noticed this while using `org-resolve-clocks' when
`org-clock-continuously' was set to true.

Let's say I clock into "Task 1" at 12:00, and then at 12:30, I start
working on "Task 2". Then, at 12:45, I notice that I forgot to clock out
of "Task 1". No worries, org-mode has `org-resolve-clocks'! So, I invoke
`org-resolve-clocks', keep 30 minutes, and then clock into "Task
2". However, when I clock in, the clock start time is 12:45, violating
the promise that `org-clock-continuously' makes.

This patch updates the variable `org-clock-out-time' when `org-clock-out'
gets passed an `at-time', which fixes the issue I run into.

The patch is attached. Is there anything else I need to do?

Thanks,
Benson

* lisp/org-clock.el (org-clock-out): If `at-time' was passed, set
org-clock-out-time to that value. Otherwise, set it to now.
