Description & motivation
For various reasons the preview service can return an error response. It will not be retried.
This provides a simple retry mechanism. Running as a scheduled task ("cronjob"), every 5 minutes it finds the most recent errored preview (one for each connected regional database). It resets the preview request to pending and queues a job to be processed by the preview service.
It maintains a simple in-memory record of the last errored preview it retried for each database, ensuring it progresses to the next most recent on the next scheduled run.
