See the existing maintenance script: tally.php Make the job runnable from the TallyPage web interface, if an election is too large (see T276354)

Following {T276354}, it would be nice if we could start a job running if a user wanted to tally a large encrypted election, rather than asking the user to run the maintenance script themselves. The job would do the same thing as the existing maintenance script: [[ https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/plugins/gitiles/mediawiki/extensions/SecurePoll/+/afa310450979443f66e3f7c52bdf5d10e54fb502/cli/tally.php | tally.php ]] This task is to find out how we would do that. For this task we can assume that the user can check the results on the server. There is a separate task for investigating nicer ways to display the results to the user: T276372
