Move gerrit replication waiting queue aside during project renames

We will be doing our first set of project renames in about a month since
we've noticed that the waiting queue is not draining properly. The
contents of this queue produce many scary looking (on the order of
thousands) exceptions during gerrit startup. Move the queue aside to
avoid confusion and uncertainty of problems during the project rename
process.

# As an alternative we can simply delete the waiting queue. Previously

# We use the tmp/ path because it is not backed up and we don't need to
# preserve this information long term.
