Rename existing task system notes

What does this MR do and why?

We changed the name of task in Issues to checklist item. Most changes were done in the frontend, but we have the old name on system notes when me mark a checklist item as complete or incomplete. Another MR made sure new system notes use the new name and also that the returned value in our APIs is the new name by overriding the model method. This migration needs to go through all system notes related to tasks and change to the new name so we can remove the overridden value.

DB Review

Approximate Run Time of the Migration

4.01 days (more details in note #369930 (comment 1102403527))

This is a very rough and conservative estimate, it will probably take less that the calculated 1 min in each batch. Batched migration optimization might increase the batch size to a max of 20_000 that might reduce the runtime a lot

Temporary index creation

CREATE INDEX tmp_index_system_note_metadata_on_id_where_task ON system_note_metadata USING btree (id, action) WHERE ((action)::text = 'task'::text)
