Leo Hemsted f6d210f1e6 put delete tasks on the reporting worker ...

they share a lot with the reporting tasks (creating ft_billing and
ft_notification_status), in that they're run nightly, take a long time,
and we see error messages if they get run multiple times (due to
visibility timeout).

The periodic app has two concurrent processes - previously there was
just one delete task, which would use one of those processes, while the
other process would pick up anything else on the queue (at that time of
night, the regular provider switch checks and scheduled job checks).
However, when we switched to running the three delete notification types
separately, we saw visibility timeout issues - three tasks would be
created, all three would be picked up by one celery instance, the two
worker processes would start on two of them, and the third would sit on
the box, wait longer than the visibility timeout to be picked up (and
acknowledged), and so SQS would assume the task was lost and replay it.

it's queues all the way down!

By putting them on the reporting worker we can take advantage of tuning
that app (for example setting the prefetch multiplier to one) which is
designed to run large tasks. We've also got more concurrent workers on
this box, so we can run all three tasks at once.
