Stock a new assembly

If a new assembly is about to be stocked to the system, there are two options how to place it to a location:

1. Place an assembly to a location during assignment process. Assignment process for assemblies works similar to other item types, allowing to place physical items to locations during the process when assembly is being assigned to a new location.
2. Stock assembly via restock flow. It is possible to stock assemblies to device using restock without order. As assembly does not have any vendor assigned, all assemblies are available for this flow.
