Proposed Changes

Replace all instances of template code which explicitly embeds an HTMX table with the new htmx_table tag. For instance,

<div class="card-body htmx-container table-responsive"
        hx-get="{% url 'circuits:provideraccount_list' %}?provider_id={{ object.pk }}"
        hx-trigger="load"
      ></div>

becomes

{% htmx_table 'circuits:provideraccount_list' provider_id=object.pk %}

Justification

The htmx_table tag was introduced under #12538 to standardize and simplify our approach for embedding HTMX-backed object tables. Among other benefits, this ensures that the return_url parameter is passed correctly for every embedded table.
