Story

Refs

Adds an extra worker to both local development and actively used r2 deployments that runs a new Sidekiq queue called :auxiliary.

This new worker ("auxiliary worker") has higher resource limits in r2. This is so that we can run CreateLargeDerivativeJobs (i.e. ffmpeg for videos and audio files) without bogging down the default worker (see #955 for more details).

Because of the special way `extraDeploy` gets interpreted, fetching ENV
values using `$` will not work.
We will be reusing this pattern across several projects. Not every extra
worker will need increased resource limits, so we should use a more
generic name that can apply to various requirements.
Sidekiq queues without explicit weights are prioritized in the order
they are listed. Our auxiliary worker's primary goal is to process jobs
in the auxiliary queue, thus we want it to be the top priority.
