Draft: Conver integer ID columns to bigint

Krasimir Angelov requested to merge 438124-convert-id-columns-to-bigint into master

What does this MR do and why?

This MR converts integer ID columns to bigint for test and development environments. This will result in new self-managed installations using bigint from the beginning, and this way not having to execute migrations. This will also give any new cells a wider range for unique ids.

Use bigint for new installations (#438124)
