Closes: #20788

Introduce cable profiles to define mapping & validation logic for various classes of cables (e.g. straight-through vs. breakout)
Add an optional profile choice field on dcim.Cable
Add a nullable cable_position integer field on all cabled objects (e.g. interfaces)
Rename create_cablepath() to create_cablepaths() and add position support
Extend cable tracing logic to consider the position of a path relative to its cable
Enable drag-and-drop of items within multi-select widgets
Refactor cable path tests
- Split out base CablePathTestCase class
- Introduced new profile-based tests in parallel to legacy (non-profile) tests
- Did not alter any of the legacy tests, to ensure backward compatibility is retained
Update documentation for the Cable model
