Clear stale data in Redis with a simple command line command

Using RQ for a while, stale data can get piled up in Redis. Most notably dead workers and a full failed queue.
We should provide a simple means of discarding that data on the command line.
Best place I can think of for that now is rqinfo --clear of some sort. Open for discussion/tips.
