Filter devices by rack

[candlerb]

Issue type: feature request

I would like to be able to do a bulk update of devices in a particular rack, e.g. to set a custom attribute.

However right now:

• If you browse devices, you can filter by Rack Group but not by Rack
• If you drill down to the Rack itself, it draws the racked devices and lists the unracked devices, but doesn't have a bulk update option (e.g. a tab to show Devices with checkboxes beside them)

I think the simplest solution is to add a new filter on the RHS of the Device page (/dcim/devices/) to filter on Rack - this should include option None to see unracked devices.

As a workaround you can currently go to the rack and click on the devices count at the "devices" section. This leads to the following URL:
https://yournetbox/dcim/devices/?rack_id=

You can also append the "rack_id" parameter to the already existing filter-parameters of the device page to manually filter devices for a specific rack, e.g.:
https://yournetbox/dcim/devices/?q=&role=server&status=&mac_address=&cf_legacy_hardware=&cf_serviceid=&rack_id=

That works, thanks! And I note you can select multiple racks with &rack_id=X&rack_id=Y

However, I'd still like the filter available in the UI. It would be a lot easier to use.

We should be able to make this work similar to the nested filters for manufacturer and device type on the devices list.
