Grafana OnCall engine fork — self-hosted on-call scheduler and alert router
# Which issue(s) this PR fixes
when running the mobile app (emulator) + OnCall locally and trying to
trigger "You're Going OnCall" push notifications, I was seeing this in
the `celery` logs:
```bash
2023-05-24 21:39:54,032 source=engine:celery worker=ForkPoolWorker-3 task_id=cf9e5b52-a213-430a-8e3c-d6c3bed53318 task_name=apps.mobile_app.tasks.conditionally_send_going_oncall_push_notifications_for_schedule name=celery.app.trace level=INFO Task apps.mobile_app.tasks.conditionally_send_going_oncall_push_notifications_for_schedule[cf9e5b52-a213-430a-8e3c-d6c3bed53318] retry: Retry in 2s: NameError("name 'MobileAppUserSettings' is not defined")
```
This PR patches that by adding the import (inside the relevant function,
to avoid circular imports). After adding this import, I am seeing push
notifications being sent successfully:
```bash
