Timeline frame pausing is inaccurate at low framerates
Reproduction steps:
1. Open user's attached project "TimelineFrameTests.zip" and scene "SampleScene"
2. In Hierarchy window, select "Timeline" GameObject
3. Enter Play Mode
4. Observe Timeline window
5. In case timeline pauses at frame 176, exit play mode and repeat steps 2-5
Expected result: Timeline pauses at frame 176
Actual result: Timeline pauses at frame 177
Reproducible with: 1.5.0-preview.5 (2019.4.12f1, 2020.1.9f1, 2020.2.0b8, 2021.1.0a1)
Could not test with: 2018.4.28f1 (script errors break project)
Note:
The bug occurs more often the lower the frame rate is.

Resolution Note:
Timeline is sampled based on the frame rate. It rarely samples 'on frame'. Signals trigger when the time crosses the signal boundary, so this is expected behaviour and not considered a bug.
A workaround for this issue is to set the playableDirector wrap mode to hold, and set the root Playable duration to the time of the signal. That will prevent timeline from going past the signal time. When the signal triggers, change the duration to the next signal, or the timeline duration if there are no more signals.
