Improvement to merged_branch_names cache
What does this MR do?
Second iteration for #30536 (closed), following on from !23458 (merged).
This rewrites the cache work to use a Redis hash store. This should result in less work happening in Ruby, but maintains very few cache calls by using pipelining. It also increases the cache time for these values to 2 weeks instead of 10 minutes from the first iteration.
The feature flag is still in place for this, and will be removed in a later MR.
