Add support for Solid Queue

[lairtonmendes]

What does this pull request do?

Adds support for Solid Queue, the
Active Record–backed queue adapter that became the default in Rails 8.
The new spy instruments SolidQueue::ClaimedExecution#perform and produces one APM transaction per job:

• transaction.name = the job's class name (the wrapped ActiveJob)
• transaction.type = SolidQueue
• label :queue = the queue the job was claimed from
• exceptions raised by the job are reported via ElasticAPM.report and mark the transaction outcome=failure

Implementation notes worth surfacing for review:

• SolidQueue::ClaimedExecution lives under app/models and is autoloaded by the Rails engine via Zeitwerk, so the spies' Kernel.require hook never fires. The prepend is installed inside Rails.application.reloader.to_prepare, which both delays installation until the engine's autoload paths are in place and re-applies the patch after dev-mode reloads.
• Fork mode (solid_queue's default supervisor) is already handled by Agent#detect_forking!, which runs on every start_transaction / start_span / report and rebuilds the agent's background threads in the forked child. No spy-side lifecycle hooks are needed.
• Gemfile gates gem 'solid_queue' to Rails ≥ 7.1 so the older Rails matrix entries keep resolving.

Why is it important?

Solid Queue is the default Active Job adapter in Rails 8 and is the queue shipped by rails new for every new Rails app from 8.0 onward. Without this instrumentation, jobs executed by solid_queue produce no APM transactions, leaving an entire class of work invisible in Kibana.

Verification

End-to-end smoke test against a Rails 8.1 app using solid_queue as the
Active Job adapter, with traces captured by a mock APM server:

• async supervisor mode — all enqueued jobs produced one transaction each (success, failure with reported exception, non-default queue label).
• fork supervisor mode (solid_queue's default) — same coverage; each forked Worker process produces transactions, handled by the existing Agent#detect_forking!.
