Use quantum core for update scheduling
Rather than requiring a traditional crontab install, the app now
leverages quantum-core (link below) to schedule the instance update/sync
task every 5 minutes. Some updates as a result:
- The new job is scheduled at runtime in server.ex.
- The update.exs script was refactored to be compiled along with the
rest of the app as instances.ex.
- Scheduler and Server modules were added for creating and executing
the new update task
- All shell scripts were removed, as they are no longer needed
