Choose a job/task/message queue store/service for “background” jobs, such as populating data for new services #6

Fetching updates of existing sources will (probably) just be kicked off by a cron job, although that cron job might just enqueue retrieval jobs into this job store.

When a user adds a service, we want to retrieve the data from that source immediately, but in the background. So we definitely need this queue store/service.

We could use something backed by Redis, or we could store the jobs in our main persistent datastore (whatever we end up choosing, see #2). TBD.
