Michael Terry 4b25ffa39d Add expire_old_entitlements command
This new management command will search for possible entitlements
that are languishing in the database and expire them if they can
be according to our policy.

This is meant to be run on a regular basis to clear out old
entitlements.

This task is designed to be called to process a bundle of entitlements
that might be expired and confirm if we can do so. This is useful when
checking if an entitlement has just been abandoned by the learner and needs
to be expired. (In the normal course of a learner using the platform, the
entitlement will expire itself. But if a learner doesn't log in... So we
run this task every now and then to clear the backlog.)

entitlements (list): An iterable set of CourseEntitlements to check
