Delete Elasticsearch migrations index in rake elastic:delete_index

What does this MR do?

The migrations Elasticsearch index was recently introduced but we didn't add anything to our normal lifecycle rake tasks to delete it. This should have been done initially and will be the expected user experience.

This task is also used by gitlab:elastic:index which is the main way for resetting your index back to scratch. It makes sense that these all will clear out all index types including the migrations index. This will help with any users trying to use this rake task to do a reset of everything and will also help with local development.

This MR also makes 2 minor refactors to introduce methods #delete_migrations_index and #migrations_index_exists? which should simplify a lot of duplicated calls. Most of the changes in this MR is refactoring to use these new helper methods.
