Migrate from MediaWiki
Not really specific tools for that purpose, but our api-scripts repo has a collection of examples that use the API, which could be used as a basis for building something more specific. Within the readme there is also a variety of more extensive community project, some of which may also be useful here.

Move to BookStack from WikiJS?
If you wanted accessible non-DB copies of your content, this is possible via a couple of options. Some users script exports of all their books. I have an example of this here in our API script examples repo. Alternatively you could write out raw content to plain files on the system via hooking into events using our logical theme system. I have an basic example of doing this for HTML format content within this blog post.

Any self-hosted alternative to Confluence for wikis that comes anywhere close?
Can't give too much advice in regards to Confluence, but in regards to BookStack import the REST API is probably the best best. API docs can be seen on our demo instance here. API usage examples, and community projects/scripts, can be found here if it helps. You might be able to find existing confluence to bookstack scripts. Came across this in a search but not sure how feature complete or up-to-date it is.

Examples with Github Pages?
I was thinking about using MkDocs, its usually used for documentation but I don't see why it couldn't be used for a normal wiki aswell. Since It's markdown you can just customize it like if it were a wiki, and a wiki doesn't really need backend stuff so I don't see a problem with it
