Fix issues reordering fields description

What does this MR do?

Related to #246162 (closed)

This issue raised that the behaviour of the GraphQL mutation issueMoveList is not matching the fields description and @engwan noticed that the description is actually incorrect, along with the ones for the REST API endpoint:

So it looks like our GraphQL and REST API descriptions for these params are actually incorrect:

description: 'ID of issue before which the current issue will be positioned at'
description: 'ID of issue after which the current issue will be positioned at'
| `move_after_id` | integer | no | The ID of a project's issue to move this issue after |
| `move_before_id` | integer | no | The ID of a project's issue to move this issue before |

If you look at the docs for Epics, it is correct:

| `move_before_id` | integer        | no       | The global ID of a sibling epic that should be placed before the child epic.                                       >|
| `move_after_id`  | integer        | no       | The global ID of a sibling epic that should be placed after the child epic.

Author's checklist (required)

Do not add the feature, frontend, backend, ~"bug", or database labels if you are only updating documentation. These labels will cause the MR to be added to code verification QA issues.

When applicable:

Review checklist

All reviewers can help ensure accuracy, clarity, completeness, and adherence to the Documentation Guidelines and Style Guide.

1. Primary Reviewer

  • Review by a code reviewer or other selected colleague to confirm accuracy, clarity, and completeness. This can be skipped for minor fixes without substantive content changes.

2. Technical Writer

  • Technical writer review. If not requested for this MR, must be scheduled post-merge. To request for this MR, assign the writer listed for the applicable DevOps stage.
    • Ensure docs metadata are present and up-to-date.
    • Ensure Technical Writing and documentation are added.
    • Add the corresponding docs:: scoped label.
    • Add twdoing when starting work on the MR.
    • Add twfinished if Technical Writing team work on the MR is complete but it remains open.

3. Maintainer

  1. Review by assigned maintainer, who can always request/require the above reviews. Maintainer's review can occur before or after a technical writer review.
  2. Ensure a release milestone is set.
  3. If there has not been a technical writer review, create an issue for one using the Doc Review template.
