Add 'MemoryKiller' Sidekiq middleware

When enabled, this middleware allows Sidekiq to detect that its RSS has
exceeded a maximum value, triggering a graceful shutdown. This
middleware should be combined with external process supervision that
will restart Sidekiq after the graceful shutdown, such as Runit.
