[Feature] - Add checkoutByTag API endpoint for assets #11417

Description

Seeing as asset tags are unique, it should be safe to, and would be useful to be able to call the API and check out an asset using it's asset tag. We have each asset tagged with a barcode, and have an internally developed mobile app to quickly scan user ID cards, then the asset tag.

This extra endpoint means we no longer need to run a separate API call to look up the asset to get it's internal snipe ID first.

This uses essentially the same code from the GET /hardware/bytag/:asset_tag endpoint, and if the asset is found, calls the existing checkout function.

Type of change

Please delete options that are not relevant.

  • New feature (non-breaking change which adds functionality)
  • This change requires a documentation update
    NOTE - there seems to be an undocumented new API endpoint for checkinByTag, which should be updated too.

How Has This Been Tested?

Please describe the tests that you ran to verify your changes. Provide instructions so we can reproduce. Please also list any relevant details for your test configuration

  • Test API call with existing deployable check-in asset - asset checked out as expected
  • Test API call with existing deployable check-out asset - asset not available to be checked out as expected
  • Test API call with non-existing asset tag - asset not found as expected

Test Configuration:

  • PHP version: 8.0.20
  • MySQL version: 8.0
  • Webserver version: 6.0.2
  • OS version: Windows Server 2019

Do we actually need the with('assetstatus')->with('assignedTo') stuff? The checkout() method already tries to determine if we can check the item out or not.

Absolutely - my bad, I did remove it but at one point, but must have added it back when I was working on my own checkinByTag function (before I found there already was one). Changes applied.
