Previously we were catching one type of exception if something went
wrong adding a notification to the queue for high volume services.
In reality there are two types of exception so this adds a second
handler to cover both.
For context, this is code we changed experimentally as part of the
upgrade to Celery 5 [1]. At the time we didn't check how the new
exception compared to the old one. It turns out they behaved the
same and we were always vulnerable to the scenario now covered by
the second exception, where the behaviour has changed in Celery 5 -
testing with a large task invocation gives...
Before (Celery 3, large-ish task):
'process_job.apply_async(["a" * 200000])'...
