Resolve "Convert award_emoji.awardable_id to Bigint for self managed "
What does this MR do and why?
This MR swaps theaward_emoji.awardable_id and award_emoji.awardable_id_convert_to_bigint columns for self-managed instances. This was already done for GitLab.com with Swap award_emoji.awardable_id to bigint (!118125 - merged). The process is outlined here.
The timeline for GitLab.com was the following:
- 15.11 Initialize conversion of awardable_id to bigint (!115928 - merged)
- 16.0 Swap award_emoji.awardable_id to bigint (!118125 - merged)
- 16.1 Cleanup PK conversion for few notes related tables (!123108 - merged)
Since we made the decision to commit schema changes to structure.sql for the above MRs, we now need to take into account the state of the schema from which the self-managed instance was created.
