This commit adds a default protection to all Discourse app which will turn away all anonymous requests that has queued for more than the duration configured by the `reject_anonymous_min_queue_seconds` global setting, 1 second by default. A queue time of 1 second is a sign that the app is very overloaded so we are opting to turn away anonymous requests when that happens. While there may be better solutions like introducing an adaptive concurrency limit somewhere in the stack, we like this solution for its simplicity. We may consider the more complex solutions in the future but the time is not now. Other significant changes in this commit: 1. Moved setting of the `REQUEST_QUEUE_SECONDS` key in `env` to `Middleware::ProcessingRequest`. 2. Introduction of the `reject_anonymous_min_queue_seconds` global Setting.
