Pre fill order form after clicking Order against a line in Stock Overview #17

Alternative title: all the many Order buttons in Stock Overview page do the same thing.

A nice to have QoL feature would be when I go into Stock Overview, see an item is running low and click order ... image ...when the link takes me to the Order page, that the details of that particular item (item name, location) are prefilled in the form. The way the UI is laid out leads the user to expect this will happen and hence not make note of the item/location they wish to order. I find myself having to back (to the Stock Management Console) to copy that before reattempting the order.

Could the be done through the url? i.e. :8000/order/?item=Megachlor&location=Reception or similar.

If this can't be done, let's not have an Order button on each line of the Stock Management Console. Just one next to Download Stock Report. If as a user I saw only one Order button, I would make note of what I want to order before clicking it.
