add async consumer blocks to message queue stage in scaling sim
Adds internal tools, observability dashboards, aggregated statistics,
and debug logs outside the data center pointing to databases — motivates
why async message queue events are useful beyond the main request path.

"Some operations are too slow or resource-intensive to handle synchronously in a web request — sending emails, processing images, generating reports, running ML models. A message queue (like RabbitMQ, Kafka, or SQS) decouples producers (web servers) from consumers (workers). The web server publishes a task to the queue and immediately responds to the user. Worker processes pick up tasks from the queue and process them asynchronously. This makes the system more loosely coupled and failure resilient — if a worker crashes, the message stays in the queue and gets picked up by another worker.",
