Anonymise users background job

This gives us a simple background job which anonymises users who have
been deactivated for more than 5 years. We introduce the sidekiq-scheduler
gem for the purpose of scheduling jobs in a cron-like manner.

(Also worth noting that the sidekiq_scheduler_spec basically just checks for
typos in the Sidekiq schedule config, in case we ever need to tweak that
again or add additional jobs.)

+# 40. Use sidekiq-scheduler for scheduled jobs
+
+Date: 2025-02-03
+
+## Status
+
+Accepted
+
+## Context
+
+We needed a mechanism for running scheduled background jobs in order to
+anonymise users who have been inactive for more than five years. There is no
+mechanism currently in place in RODA to handle scheduled background jobs, but
+we do have Sidekiq already available to us for running jobs in the background.
+
+## Decision
+
+We have decided to use [sidekiq-scheduler][1] as a lightweight scheduled job
+solution. A small amount of research suggested that this gem offered a decent
+implementation with a standard and well-understood interface (the time-honoured
+cron syntax combined with Sidekiq's jobs (_né_ workers)). We also briefly
+explored [sidekiq-cron][2] which does almost exactly the same thing, but had
+slightly worse documentation.
+
+## Consequences
+
+With the addition of this gem, we have a small amount of configuration overhead
+and, of course, one additional dependency. Neither of these is particularly
+onerous. We now benefit from having a standardised solution for our current
+and future scheduled background job requirements.
