Move issues to the end on creation in the new-issue-worker

What does this MR do?

Related to #238416 (closed)

We have seen query timeouts during movement and rebalancing operations as part of Issue#move_to_end. Due to the nature of movements, we cannot offer constant time guarantees, so the best thing is to move this operation into the NewIssueWorker.

This calls Issue.move_nulls_to_end on recently created unpositioned issues, which will preserve creation order with more fidelity in the presence of out-of-order execution of multiple workers.
