Add default database value for notified_of_own_activity column

What does this MR do and why?

We replaced default_value_for gem with the native rails implementation in f124341c. We added some setters and getters to ensure the same behavior. After adding the default for columns, we need to backfill the null values and then remove the setters and getters which is a bit hacky way to make this work.

For other columns changed in f124341c defaults are already present.
