Delayed job status

[sdc50]

Description

Add the ability to add a query argument delay to the update_job_status callback, e.g.:

http://127.0.0.1:8000/update-job-status/14/?delay=120

The server will wait for delay seconds before calling update_status on the job.

Note:

This "delay" capability was added as a general capability, and the ability schedule periodic execution of a function was included (though not used by the update_job_status callback). I have not added this to the Tethys SDK because I would like to get more experience with it before deciding if it should be made "officially" available to apps. I don't consider it to be a robust task scheduling capability since all tasks are stored in memory and would be lost if the server restarts.

Changes Made to Code:

• modified the update_job_status callback to be async and to support a delay
• moved the job status views from tethys_apps to tethys_compute
• migrated a few helper functions from tethys_gizmos to tethys_compute

Quality Checks

• New code is 100% tested
• Code has been formated
• Code has been linted
• Docstrings for new methods have been added

I'm not sure what happened to readthedocs, but our build there seems to be broken. I'm out of time to look into it for now.

I'm not sure what happened to readthedocs, but our build there seems to be broken. I'm out of time to look into it for now.

Best I can tell, what happened is Python 3.13 was released and the cgi module that Django 3.2 depended on was removed (previously deprecated). Our docs build was pinned to django=3.2.. I just updated it to 4.2. and the build worked.
