Allow ObjectChildrenView to be used by plugins

[hagbarddenstore]

NetBox version

v3.2.0

Feature type

Change to existing functionality

Proposed functionality

Officially allow plugins to use the ObjectChildrenView class.

Decide that it's ok to be used and document how to use it in the plugin development documentation.

Use case

To be able to create models in plugins that have child models (Interfaces to a Firewall, Routes for a Router, etc.) and make them look and feel like any other child models do in "native" NetBox.

Reduces the amount of code that needs to be written for something that "native" NetBox already solves.

Database changes

None

External dependencies

None

I must admit that I already used this ObjectChildrenView class even if not part of the official plugin API. I can take care of the documentation if you planned to make it public.
