Add async foreign key validation model

Marius Bobin requested to merge 390651-mb-async-fk-validation-1 into master

What does this MR do and why?

Related to #390651 (closed)

For partitioning the ci_builds table we will have to update all foreign key relations to include the partitioning key and validate the new FKs. The validation will take a few good hours for each FK and needs to be executed during low traffic hours because it blocks the vacuum process, which could lead to slow queries across the CI domain. This MR adds the table that will act as a queue to hold the FKs that need to be validated, similar to async indexes.
