When the feature to enable the management of domain registration information was introduced, it seemed like a good idea to name the model for the Admin-C, Tech-C etc. "Contact". The idea was that namespacing by the plugin's application name would provide enough separation from the core "Contact" model.
Turned out, that idea was wrong. When Strawberry replaced the old GraphQL package in NetBox, the collisions became apparent as Strawberry does not observe the namespacing by app. This could be worked around, but error messages when creating the strawberry schema remained.
For this reason, this PR renames the "Contact" model to "RegistrationContact", which resolves the issue.
Breaking Change
This is a breaking change. All API and script applications using DNS registration contacts will need to be adjusted. This seems to be a minor price to pay for a cleaner integration into NetBox.
This PR will be merged before NetBox DNS 1.1.0 is released (shortly after the release of NetBox 4.1.0)
