    Fix logic used to determine project export status · a309861a

    Currently, lock files are used to determine the state of a
    project export. However, the lock files are not stored in a shared
    volume, causing the export states to be reported incorrectly.
    
    In order to fix this, we now store the export states in database
    as a more reliable mechanism. The table used is project_export_jobs.
    It stores the project_id, job_id and the current state.
    
    In addition to existing states, also added are two new states
    queued and regeneration_in_progress states. They are used to indicate
    a job that's waiting to be started and the case when a project export
    operation has been requested to be re-generated.
    
    Failed jobs are re-tried 3 times, after which the state is updated
    to failed.
    
    To account for jobs that get stuck, a cron job runs every hour
    to set the stuck jobs to failed state.
