Project columns and cards use a sorting field for ordering, but nothing prevents duplicate values from being inserted. This causes unpredictable ordering and makes swap-based reordering unsafe. Additionally, the same issue can be added to a project multiple times, which shouldn't be possible.
This PR adds a migration to clean up existing data and enforce three unique constraints:
- (project_id, sorting) on project_board — one sorting value per column per project
- (project_id, issue_id) on project_issue — one card per issue per project
- (project_board_id, sorting) on project_issue — one sorting value per card per column
The migration deduplicates existing rows and reassigns sequential sorting values before adding the constraints.
Changes
- Migration: fix duplicate sorting values in project_board and project_issue, remove duplicate (project_id, issue_id) rows, add three unique constraints
- MoveColumnsOnProject: two-phase swap (negate then set) to avoid constraint collisions
- MoveIssuesOnProjectColumn: three-phase approach with duplicate validation and sorted lock ordering
- UpdateColumn: always persist sorting field (allows setting to 0)
- GetDefaultColumn: query max sorting before auto-creating
- createDefaultColumnsForProject: explicit sequential sorting
- changeProjectStatus: only set ClosedDateUnix when closing

On creation of an empty project (no template) a default board will be
created instead of falling back to the uneditable pseudo-board.
Every project now has to have exactly one default boards. As a
consequence, you cannot unset a board as default, instead you have to
set another board as default. Existing projects will be modified using a
cron job, additionally this check will run every midnight by default.
Deleting the default board is not allowed, you have to set another board
as default to do it.
