Use work_item_types for issue import/export (GitLab project export)

Mario Celi requested to merge 415951-import-export-use-work-item-type into master

What does this MR do and why?

With &6536 we are changing all code that uses the issue_type column before we can actually drop it. This MR was one of the final steps. We need to make sure of the following:

  1. We are not using the issue_type column when exporting a project.
  2. We export the associated work_item_type together with the issue.
  3. We properly import the work_item_type.
  4. We are backwards compatible with older project exports that might have exported the issue_type attribute.
