ApiDerive.staking backwards compatibility.

[TarikGul]

This PR works on giving the support needed for backwards compatibility. With the recent staking breaking changes these PR's introduced: https://github.com/polkadot-js/api/pull/5860 https://github.com/polkadot-js/api/pull/5862 It also ended up breaking compatibility for some parachains in the UI.

This is part 1 of the staking changes saga, and once this goes in I can rework the UI to have support for the new and the old.

Summary

• ownExposure && ownExposures will properly build safe types for historic calls such as erasStakers, and erasStakersClipped. It also ensures the calls exist or else will default to the empty type.

• query && queryMulti now take in a flag withExposureErasStakersLegacy and returns a new field called exposureEraStakers

• nextElected now has support for both erasStakersPaged and erasStakers.

TODO:

• [x] Test the following changes against apps to ensure it works for both old and new.

NOTE: My one concern is that api.derive.staking.stakersRewards* uses withClaimedErasRewards as a default flag here which could potentially still act as a regression for the UI.

It might be useful to add some throttling to api.derive.staking.queryMulti so that thousands of calls aren't emitted at the same time. (Not sure if this is the appropriate decision yet as I have not thought about it much.)

Note: I wont be able to test this against Apps until I have some stable internet come Sunday as I am still OOO.

I tested each call that was changed against polkadex to ensure the old calls are now available, and I also ensured everything is fault tolerant so it wont fail if the calls don't exist.
