Generate RuboCop todos periodically

Abdul Wadood requested to merge 468897-generate-rubocop-todo-in-scheduled-pipelines into main

What does this MR do and why?

This change adds a job to regenerate RuboCop todo files in a scheduled pipeline. As code evolves, some RuboCop offenses are automatically fixed. Regenerating todos prevents reintroduction of these offenses.

The new job uses the GenerateRubocopTodos keep and requires HOUSEKEEPER_GITLAB_API_TOKEN in the project CI/CD variables.

We also need to set the AUTO_GENERATE_RUBOCOP_TODOS variable to true when creating the pipeline schedule.
