Background process note logic for #3948

Quick and dirty way to get *most* of the note processing out of band and into the background. Seeing some pretty nice speed bumps. Keep in mind that doing this in process results in slower and slower responses as more notes are added and more participants exist.

```
without background processing
  Completed 200 OK in 627ms (Views: 0.5ms | ActiveRecord: 32.3ms)
  Completed 200 OK in 478ms (Views: 0.8ms | ActiveRecord: 28.3ms)
  Completed 200 OK in 1107ms (Views: 0.6ms | ActiveRecord: 36.6ms)

with background processing
  Completed 200 OK in 108ms (Views: 0.6ms | ActiveRecord: 4.7ms)
  Completed 200 OK in 78ms (Views: 0.5ms | ActiveRecord: 4.5ms)
  Completed 200 OK in 164ms (Views: 0.5ms | ActiveRecord: 8.3ms)
```

As you can see, speeds are consistent when doing the harder work out of process. I'm not sure the number of sql queries we're saving, but based on the logs alone it's a pretty good amount.

@dzaporozhets @yorickpeterse I would love some input on this.

Closes #12621

Prevent transient Capybara timeouts during feature tests

The problem occurred because asset compilation takes a long time, so
when the asset cache didn't exist and the first test ran, it would often
(randomly) time out during the generation before the actual test even
had a chance to run.

Now we check if the cache exists before the suite runs, and if not, we
manually fire a request to the root URL in order to generate it. This
should allow subsequent tests to use the cached assets.

fix syntax error on 2.1 and rubocop on 2.2

Background:

Hashes `{:'key': 'value'}` are not valid in 2.1 but are recommended by Rubocop on 2.2. We only use those when we have a key such as `weird-key`, `weird.key`, etc... 

We could disable Rubocop but it wouldn't warn us about the recommended syntax since `Ruby 1.9`: `{key: 'value'}`, which is valid for `Ruby 1.9+`.

Workaround 1 could be disabling `Style/HashSyntax:` in `rubocop.yml`. 

Workaround 2 (tried in this MR) is to trick Rubocop using `.to_sym` which is effectively the same as adding the `:`. This would allow to keep the warning in place.

This ensures that rake tasks that don't need a DB connection can be run
without one.

Return a fake application settings OpenStruct when this is not the case.
Also, use ActiveRecord::Base.connection_pool.active_connection? instead
of ActiveRecord::Base.connection.active? to avoid driver exception.
