Refactor ConvertTableToFirstListPartition

What does this MR do and why?

Describe in detail what your merge request does and why.

This MR refactors the ConvertTableToFirstListPartiton class to a List::ConvertTable class with the same functionality.

It splits the locking configuration from List::ConvertTable to a new List::LockingConfiguration class, and splits the spec setup code to spec/support/shared_contexts/lib/gitlab/database/partitioning/list_partitioning_shared_context.rb so that both of these can be reused in a future MR that adds support for redefining foreign keys after the conversion.

The refactor here will lead to Draft: Queue replacement foreign keys during pa... (!118096), which uses the extracted functionality.
