Ryan Petrello 5364e78397 switch the periodic scheduler to a child process (instead of a thread) ...

I have a hunch that our usage of a daemon thread is causing import lock
contention related to https://github.com/ansible/awx/issues/5617
We've encountered similar issues before with threads across dispatcher
processes at fork time, and cpython has had bugs like this in recent
history:

https://bugs.python.org/issue38884

My gut tells me this might be related.

The prior implementation - based on celerybeat - ran its code in
a process (not a thread), and the timing of that merge matches the
period of time we started noticing issues.

Currently testing it to see if it resolves some of the issues we're
seeing.
