Add entry for Sidekiq performance issue
What does this MR do?
When running the new batched migrations, particularly on single node installations which have only a single or very limited sidekiq processes processing all jobs, a slow batched job can end up causing scheduling delays on all other critical jobs and cause various performance issues to appear on regular GitLab use (especially merge requests and CI features which rely a lot on asynchronous jobs to keep themselves up to date with changes made to repositories).
This change adds a config suggestion (in a troubleshooting entry) to mitigate the effect the batched migrations may cause on such limited installations.
