lease_seconds = 900 and heartbeat_seconds = 30, and give genuinely long jobs a larger lease

Q: How do I stop long jobs from running twice?
A: Keep heartbeats well inside the lease and give long jobs a larger lease, for example
lease_seconds = 900 with heartbeat_seconds = 30. Also make the job body safe to repeat, because an
idempotency key only deduplicates enqueues.
   [troubleshooting-duplicates] "keep heartbeats well inside the lease, and give genuinely long jobs a larger lease"
   [troubleshooting-duplicates] "An idempotency key deduplicates enqueues."

Q: Does retries=5 on @app.job mean five retries after the first attempt?
A: No. retries is the maximum number of attempts including the first, so retries=5 means at most
five runs: the first plus four retries.
   [retries-and-backoff] "retries=5 means at most five runs: the first plus four retries."
