## Description
Blocked contacts are now excluded from SLA assignment, processing,
reports, and conversation SLA UI while they remain blocked. Existing SLA
records are preserved, and SLA behavior resumes if the contact is
unblocked.

- Fixes SLA breach computation to respect the "Only during business
hours" setting
- Backend now pre-computes SLA deadlines, simplifying frontend logic
## How it works
Before: SLA deadlines were calculated using wall-clock time, ignoring
business hours.
After: When an SLA policy has "Only during business hours" enabled and
the inbox has working hours configured, the deadline is calculated by
adding threshold time only during business hours.
**How you check if a conversation has a SLA hit or miss?**

/>
**Example:**
- Conversation created: Friday 4:30 PM
- FRT threshold: 1 hour
- Business hours: Mon-Fri 9 AM - 5 PM
| | Breach time |
|--|--|
| Before | Friday 5:30 PM |
| After | Monday 9:30 AM |
## Test plan
- [x] Create an SLA policy with "Only during business hours" enabled
- [x] Configure inbox with business hours (e.g., Mon-Fri 9-5)
- [x] Conversation created during business hours
- Create a conversation on Wednesday 10:00 AM UTC
- Expected: FRT deadline shows Wednesday 12:00 PM UTC (2 business hours
later)
- [x] Conversation created before business hours
- Create a conversation on Wednesday 7:00 AM UTC
- Expected: FRT deadline shows Wednesday 11:00 AM UTC (counting starts
at 9 AM)
- [x] Conversation created after business hours
- Create a conversation on Wednesday 6:00 PM UTC
- Expected: FRT deadline shows Thursday 11:00 AM UTC (counting starts
next day 9 AM)
- [x] Conversation created on weekend
- Create a conversation on Saturday 10:00 AM UTC
- Expected: FRT deadline shows Monday 11:00 AM UTC (skips weekend)
- [x] Threshold spans weekend
- Create a conversation on Friday 4:00 PM UTC with 2-hour FRT
- Expected: FRT deadline shows Monday 10:00 AM UTC (1h Friday + 1h
Monday)
- [x] SLA without business hours
- Create an SLA policy with only_during_business_hours: false
- Create a conversation on Friday 4:00 PM UTC with 2-hour FRT
- Expected: FRT deadline shows Friday 6:00 PM UTC (wall-clock time)
- [x] All Day marked as closed_all_day
- Create a conversation on Tuesday 4:00 PM UTC with 2-hour FRT
- Expected: FRT deadline shows Thursday 10:00 AM UTC
- [x] All Day marked as open_all_day
- Create a conversation on Saturday 10:00 AM UTC with 2-hour FRT
- Expected: FRT deadline shows Saturday 12:00 PM UTC
- [x] UI displays correct countdown
- Verify conversation card shows correct SLA timer
- Verify timer shows flame icon when breached
- Verify timer shows alarm icon when within threshold
- Time updates automatically when time passes
- [x] Verify the breach with a different timezone than your local
timezone
