This PR Adds a configuration value (.assign_at_midpoint) to Delayed::Priority
The intent is to allow users to change the default priority of a job (i.e. when using a named priority) to be the middle of the configured priority ranges -- derived from the default or custom priority names -- as opposed to the starting value of the range.
By allowing a default value that is in the middle of the range, users will be able to bump the priority of some jobs such that they remain in their assigned queue but take priority over jobs of the same named priority.
Note: since the last priority uses a range that is infinite, it's not possible to derive the midpoint. So, for now, I've defaulted to adding 5, since that matches our defaulted priority values.
