Clear some fields from Cron workers

Bob Van Landuyt requested to merge reprazent/gitlab-ee:bvl-clear-cron-worker-context into master

What does this MR do?

Cron workers, regardless from how they are schedules, can't have a context pointing to a user, project or a namespace. Since they don't run with arguments, they are never scoped to a single resource.

So clear the context, to make sure that every job that gets scheduled from within a cron worker doesn't inherit it's context.

This also adds a with_context helper to the workers to facilitate scheduling a context for workers that are spun off from a cron worker.
