It is not a setting, and only relevant in specs. The new API is:
```
Jobs.run_later! # jobs will be thrown on the queue
Jobs.run_immediately! # jobs will run right away, avoid the queue
```
Previously if you wanted to have jobs execute in test mode, you'd have
to do `SiteSetting.queue_jobs = false`, because the opposite of queue
is to execute.
I found this very confusing, so I created a test helper called
`run_jobs_synchronously!` which is much more clear about what it does.
* It stored only oneboxed "quotes" when [quote] and links to topics or posts were mixed.
* Revising a post didn't add or remove records from the quoted_posts table.
* don't update search index if post belongs to deleted topic
* log errors instead of crashing when updating post or revision fails
* update mentions even when the href attribute is missing
* run the background job with low priority
* replace username in all notifications
* update `action_code_who` used by small action posts
* FEATURE: Update avatars in posts and revisions when user gets renamed
* FIX: Replace username in deleted posts when user gets renamed
* FEATURE: Replace username in notifications when user gets renamed
FEATURE: Update mentions and quotes when user gets merged
Since rspec-rails 3, the default installation creates two helper files:
* `spec_helper.rb`
* `rails_helper.rb`
`spec_helper.rb` is intended as a way of running specs that do not
require Rails, whereas `rails_helper.rb` loads Rails (as Discourse's
current `spec_helper.rb` does).
For more information:

In this commit, I've simply replaced all instances of `spec_helper` with
`rails_helper`, and renamed the original `spec_helper.rb`.
This brings the Discourse project closer to the standard usage of RSpec
in a Rails app.
At present, every spec relies on loading Rails, but there are likely
many that don't need to. In a future pull request, I hope to introduce a
separate, minimal `spec_helper.rb` which can be used in tests which
don't rely on Rails.
