Prepare index for optimized searches from the vulnerability_reads table

mo khan requested to merge 382625/add-index-to-vulnerability-reads into master

What does this MR do and why?

We need to be able to find all vulnerabilities for a project that are on the default branch and were detected by a specific scanner. To accomplish that, this MR introduces a post migration to begin generation of a composite database index on vulnerability_reads(project_id, scanner_id, vulnerability_id). Additional context can be found in #382625 (comment 1259314425).

This MR follows the guidance found in Database development guidance.

SELECT "vulnerabilities".*
FROM "vulnerabilities"
INNER JOIN "vulnerability_reads" "vulnerability_read"
  ON "vulnerability_read"."vulnerability_id" = "vulnerabilities"."id"
WHERE "vulnerability_read"."project_id" = 1216
  AND "vulnerability_read"."scanner_id" = 489;
