Add Vue 3 rollout flag for boards pages

What does this MR do and why?

This MR adds the vue3_migrate_boards feature flag and a vue3_migration.yml for three boards page entrypoints. This opts them into the Vue 3 migration with Option 1.

Entrypoints

  • pages.projects.boards
  • pages.groups.epic_boards
  • pages.groups.boards
