Feeds passable random data to a Redis instance to emulate emojitrack-feeder

Feeds passable random data to a Redis instance to emulate emojitrack-feeder, so that one can do realistic local development on Emojitracker realtime APIs without running a local feeder instance (which requires elevated access from Twitter), or even without a network connection entirely!

Generally this is designed to be paired with a redis docker container within a docker-compose workflow, e.g. when you are emulating the topology of the Emojitracker backend infrastructure within a virtual Docker Network, this can be swapped in transparently for the actual emojitrack-feeder container.
