Fixes: #9374
Running count on the annotated query for loading config_context is slow. The custom paginator removes the annotation before getting the count.
Testing with 35k devices loading the devices list via. the API improved load times from ~3200 ms to ~1600 ms.
This doesn't fix the underlying issue in that the query config_context annotation is slow in general and scales with the number of devices, regardless of number of records fetched.
