Add totalIssueWeight BigInt GraphQL field to BoardListType

Michael Trainor requested to merge tmike-graphql-bigint-totalweight into master

What does this MR do and why?

The totalIssueWeight BigInt field is to replace the totalWeight int field. The total weight of issues can exceed the Int data type's max value, which causes GraphQL queries that use the field to receive a 500 error. totalWeight will be deprecated.

Deprecation issue: #416219

Integer out of bounds issue: #416218 (closed)

This change is required to allow any future front-end changes to address the 500 error received when using the totalWeight field.
