feat: expose branch clean configuration via environment variables

 * `PACT_BROKER_DATABASE_CLEAN_DELETION_LIMIT`: The maximum number of records to delete at a time for each of the categories listed in the [Categories of removable data](https://docs.pact.io/pact_broker/administration/maintenance#categories-of-removable-data). Defaults to `500`.
 * `PACT_BROKER_DATABASE_CLEAN_OVERWRITTEN_DATA_MAX_AGE`: The maximum number of days to keep "overwritten" data as described in the [Categories of removable data](https://docs.pact.io/pact_broker/administration/maintenance#categories-of-removable-data)
 * `PACT_BROKER_DATABASE_CLEAN_KEEP_VERSION_SELECTORS`:  a JSON string containing a list of the "keep" selectors described in [Configuring the keep selectors](https://docs.pact.io/pact_broker/administration/maintenance#configuring-the-keep-selectors) e.g `[{"latest": true, "branch": true}, { "max_age": 90 }, { "deployed" : true }, { "released" : true }]` (remember to escape the quotes if necessary in your configuration files/console).
+* `PACT_BROKER_DATABASE_CLEAN_KEEP_BRANCH_SELECTORS`: a JSON string containing a list of selectors that identify branches to keep. Branches not matching any selector (and not the pacticipant's `main_branch`) will be deleted. Each selector supports `max_age` (integer, days — keep branches active within that many days) and/or `branch` (string or array of strings — always keep these named branches). Defaults to `[{"max_age": 90}]` (keep branches active in the last 90 days). Set to `[]` to disable stale branch cleanup entirely. e.g. `[{"max_age": 90}, {"branch": ["main", "develop"]}]`.
+* `PACT_BROKER_DATABASE_CLEAN_BRANCH_DELETION_LIMIT`: The maximum number of stale branches to delete in a single clean run. Defaults to the value of `PACT_BROKER_DATABASE_CLEAN_DELETION_LIMIT`. Set this to a lower value if branch deletion is causing performance issues.
 * `PACT_BROKER_DATABASE_CLEAN_DRY_RUN`: defaults to `false`. Set to `true` to see the output of what *would* have been deleted if the task had run. This is helpful when experimenting with or fine tuning the clean feature. As nothing is deleted when in dry-run mode, the same output will be printed in the logs each time the task runs.
