Generating shelf/bin labels from default_location

[LavissaWoW]

Following the merging of #6016, I was able to put together a very simple plugin (Not yet on GH) that exposes a list of PartBriefs to StockLocation label contexts.
Effectively making an API call for "part/?default_location=instance.pk" and including the result as context.

As we have fixed locations for all parts, we label bins with their intended contents.
Combining this and the Brother plugin allowed me to completely integrate the label printing into InvenTree.
(Yes, we actually bought a printer based on the Brother QL plugin :> )

The end result after some template tinkering was this:

@LavissaWoW very nice!

@LavissaWoW Can you share some code for the label?

[LavissaWoW]

Sure. I'll snip the template when I have the chance.
As i've mentioned, the parts listed are based on the plugin I wrote to get the data exposed to the label.
So you can't just add the template to a standard InvenTree installation and have it work.

Given that heads up, you can expect the template code here within a day or so :)

The default_parts parameter isn't exposed via InvenTree core, as mentioned.
There might also be some redundant HTML/CSS in place, as I haven't fine polished the template yet.

@LavissaWoW are you planing to put the plugin on GH?

Here it is.
Do understand that this is a temporary plugin, as I'm planning to add it to the InvenTree core code before 0.14.0.
But for now, it's usable.

Oh, and it's not a python package, so you have to git clone it into the plugins directory.
