Allow asynchronous rebase operations to be monitored

This MR introduces tracking of the `rebase_jid` for merge requests. As
with `merge_ongoing?`, `rebase_in_progress?` will now return true if a
rebase is proceeding in sidekiq.

After one release, we should remove the Gitaly-based lookup of rebases.
It is much better to track this kind of thing via the database.
