Background tasks #17

Currently, if a lot of animals get added at once, the application gets blocked because apparently the default heroku server is single-threaded / single process. We can look into the app server on heroku, but we still need to have background tasks to handle emailing, importing, etc.

Open Austin can provide an AWS instance if that would be of use.

Not an issue of AWS, mostly just an issue of installing a gem dependency (I suggest Sidekiq) and then making sure it works in the various situations. Should be pretty straightforward. It's also not particularly pressing - as long as the scraper runs regularly, it never adds more than a few pets at a time.
