Colin Watson has proposed merging ~cjwatson/launchpad:celery-rpc-backend into 
launchpad:master.

Commit message:
Switch to Celery's RPC result backend

Requested reviews:
  Launchpad code reviewers (launchpad-reviewers)

For more details, see:

Using Celery's AMQP result backend produces the following deprecation warning:

  The AMQP result backend is scheduled for deprecation in version 4.0 and 
removal in version v5.0.  Please use RPC backend or a persistent backend.

The RPC backend scales better due to using a results queue per client rather 
than a results queue per task call, but it only works if the process that 
initiates the task is always the process to retrieve the result.  This is fine 
for Launchpad, though: we generally persist the results of jobs in our database 
instead.  Our job runner ignores Celery task results unless 
`BaseRunnableJob.celery_responses` is set, and that's only the case in tests 
where the process initiating the task is indeed also the one that retrieves the 
result.
