📄 Description

Fixes: #9122

Adds a clearcache management command.
Runs the clearcache command when running upgrade.sh

Clearing the cache on upgrade prevents having a stale openapi definition.

I have an alternative version not adding a command and just calling manage.py shell -i python .c <COMMAND>, however the clearcache command can also be use to clear for example the "new update" notification, which has been mentioned as an issue a couple of times (https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox/discussions/8800).
