Closes #252,#78,#177,#265: Move options from config file to GUI (#262)
* Added some individual options * Added general options * Added show_single_cable_logical_conns and draw_default_layout * Added ignore_cable_type to IndividualOptions * Corrected permission, tiny improvements * Add preselected_device_roles to IndividualOptions * Add preselected_tags * Updated documentation * Update README.md * Corrected queryset for preselected_tags * Update README.md * move supported_termination_types to inside the function to prevent migration issues * removed general options * added new migration script --------- Co-authored-by: Mattijs Vanhaverbeke <mattijs.vanhaverbeke@ebo-enterprises.com>

## Configure
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to override the default values configure the `PLUGINS_CONFIG` in your `netbox configuration.py`.
|
||||
All individual options can be assigned a default value per user directly in the plugin. The default value can be overridden on the filter page.
|
||||
|
||||
The remaining options must be configured in the `PLUGINS_CONFIG` section of your `netbox/configuration.py`.
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
```
|
||||
PLUGINS_CONFIG = {
|
||||
'netbox_topology_views': {
|
||||
'preselected_device_roles': ['Router', 'Firewall'],

'allow_coordinates_saving': True,
