Stan Hu 5c8ce94052 Fix statement timeouts in RemoveRestrictedTodos migration
On GitLab.com, the RemoveRestrictedTodos background migration
encountered about 700+ failures a day due to statement timeouts.

PostgreSQL might perform badly with a LIMIT 1 because the planner is
guessing that scanning the index in ID order will come across the
desired row in less time it will take the planner than using another
index. The order_hint does not affect the search results. For example,
`ORDER BY id ASC, updated_at ASC` means the same thing as `ORDER BY id
ASC`.

# Iterates over the rows in a relation in batches, similar to Rails'
# `in_batches` but in a more efficient way.
#
# Unlike `in_batches` provided by Rails this method does not support a
# custom start/end range, nor does it provide support for the `load:`
# keyword argument.
#
# This method will yield an ActiveRecord::Relation to the supplied block, or
# return an Enumerator if no block is given.
#
# Example:
#
# User.each_batch do |relation|
# relation.update_all(updated_at: Time.now)
# end
#
# The supplied block is also passed an optional batch index:
#
# User.each_batch do |relation, index|
# puts index # => 1, 2, 3, ...
# end
#
# You can also specify an alternative column to use for ordering the rows:
#
# User.each_batch(column: :created_at) do |relation|
# ...
# end
#
# This will produce SQL queries along the lines of:
#
# User Load (0.7ms) SELECT "users"."id" FROM "users" WHERE ("users"."id" >= 41654) ORDER BY "users"."id" ASC LIMIT 1 OFFSET 1000
# (0.7ms) SELECT COUNT(*) FROM "users" WHERE ("users"."id" >= 41654) AND ("users"."id" < 42687)
#
# of - The number of rows to retrieve per batch.
# column - The column to use for ordering the batches.
# order_hint - An optional column to append to the `ORDER BY id`
# clause to help the query planner. PostgreSQL might perform badly
# with a LIMIT 1 because the planner is guessing that scanning the
# index in ID order will come across the desired row in less time
# it will take the planner than using another index. The
# order_hint does not affect the search results. For example,
# `ORDER BY id ASC, updated_at ASC` means the same thing as `ORDER
# BY id ASC`.
