Add unique constraint and model layer validation for vulnerability flag type

What does this MR do?

This MR introduces a model layer validation and DB layer uniqueness constraint for the flag_type, origin, and vulnerability_occurrence_id columns.

Database review

I didn't put any delete query before executing the create unique index statement as the table is empty and we are currently not writing to this table. However, adding the delete statement to wipe the table out might make sense so I will defer this to the maintainer.
