rack changelog - show changes related to reservations in rack changelog

[ITJamie]

NetBox version

v4.2.5

Feature type

Data model extension

Proposed functionality

show rack reservation changelogs on related rack changelogs

Use case

when viewing a device changelog you can see when interfaces were created updated and deleted.

the same should be made possible for racks. when viewing a rack object in the ui and you assign or edit or delete reservations related to that rack it should show those reservation changes on the rack changelog

Database changes

unknown

External dependencies

n/a

[ITJamie]

this could be done for new reservations by adding this to the rackreservation model:

    def to_objectchange(self, action):
        objectchange = super().to_objectchange(action)
        objectchange.related_object = self.rack
        return objectchange

the historic ones could be backfilled in pretty easily with a script to update existing changelogs

I am willing to take this on
