Add support for migrating linked items in issues

Overview

Linked items do not currently migrate due to a limitation in our importers since there are several interconnected references to check during a migration.

Tasks

  • Create API wrappers of the issue links endpoints
  • Add a function to issues.py where given a project ID:
    • iterate over all issues of that project (list_all projects/:id/issues)
    • check if an issue has any links (list_all projects/:id/issues/:issue_iid/links)
    • if the issue has links, recreate them on the destination side (which has a risk of being a race condition)
  • Add that function to migrate_single_project_features or as a command in the CLI or call that function after you do the migration run
  • Update docs if needed (workflow, runbooks, README, migration metrics, etc.)

Acceptance Criteria

  • Existing UTs pass locally
  • 100% code coverage on new code
