spawn a background thread to recompute for a patient (or a group of patients depending on the type of flags), on form submission

Thanks @dkayiwa. I would personally go with option 1, spawn a background thread to recompute...

I think we shall need to;

• Enable asynchronous processing in the 2.x patient flags module
• Modify the existing a service class that handles flag evaluation by adding an asynchronous function that accepts a patient or group of patient as parameters and paste Flag revaluation logic there.
• In the controllers, we shall just call that asynchronous function and pass the desired patient or group of patients.
