Add 10base-X Interface types

[jadyndev]

NetBox version

v4.0.9

Feature type

Data model extension

Proposed functionality

Add -T and -F variants of 10base-X Ethernet in
https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox/blob/develop/netbox/dcim/choices.py#L818

This has been discussed in #5318
I'd like to add:

• Sadly 10base-X is still in use in new Devices in the OT-World.
  • One of many examples: https://www.meinbergglobal.com/english/products/rack-mount-1u-ntp-server.htm
  • Maaany Programmable logic controllers use 10base-X and other weird/old connections/protocols
• There is no significant impact by adding some new choices, even when few need them. (as the list is quite long anyway)

Use case

This will improve usage for users in an OT environment

Database changes

Add new types for 10base-X

External dependencies

none

Connections like 10MHz/100MHz reference via BNC/SMA/etc. could be added as well.
(Those also have a comeback on high-bandwith equipment)

And while we're on it, antenna connections could be improved aswell

The example product you cited says it includes "2 x 10/100 MBit with RJ45 connector," which almost certainly implies 100Base-TX FastEthernet.

My bad, I didn't recall that correctly. I've looked into the usage of 10Base-X a little deeper:
Many OT-Devices, especially in the industrial and power grid sector are connected via 2-Pair DLS or ISDN, sometimes even Ethernet packed into some even older industrial protocol

To be quite honest, I'd love to have >>10Base-X devices everywhere, but I need to know if there's something (either configured to be or limited by hardware) that's 10Base-X. There're already problems connecting 10/100Base-X devices to modern hardware as some don't support less than 1GE. In those cases I need to make sure that everything will work.
