For petitions, ignore repeat signatures based on email about action-center-platform HOT 4 CLOSED

The one positive thing about not ignoring repeat signatures is that it's privacy protecting - if you enter someone's email address, the petition signature count will still increment, whether or not they already signed it.

Good point @mfb, perhaps we should simply not send the repeat email, but log the signature. We can then de-dupe as a rake task on a regular interval, which would be better for privacy.

The dedupe rake task sounds ideal, does anyone want to work on this? :)

@wioux's rake task is looking good! Now we just need to set it up to run at regular intervals. Ideally it should happen automatically when we spin up (production?) Docker containers.
