Title: Periodically run bundle update/bundle outdated

We should try to keep gems up to date as much as possible. I can see few possible ways to do that:

- Update gems in feature branch while working on it - possible lots of merge conflicts
- Update gems on master before release - please never do that
- Update gems on staging after merging feature branches - since staging branch is very temporary this will be pointless/have to be repeated a lot of times
- Treat gems update as a regular feature (new branch, merged in staging etc) - there won't be task for that in trello, there won't be release date set up etc, this is very internal and most clients do not care* about that.

Any ideas?
