Making the cart easier to use #90

Adding things from global search works but I think that it would also be helpful to be able to add physicals from the local inventory as well. This way if you are clicking through books you can save the ones that actually want to grab.

It is also pretty hard to read the location id that it gives. It looks like a long string of the hierarchy of locations but maybe you could have it just say the actual box name that its in (so the last thing on the hierarchy) and then have something that you can click on to show the hierarchy. More than likely you are going to have few enough boxes that you remember where they are.

It would also be pretty nice if it where to group entries in the cart based on their location. So if I were to add three samples to the cart and two of them were in the same box, it would be nice if they were presented that way. Not critical, just a thought

A delete all button would also be nice to have in the cart

I added an "empty cart" button to the cart. You can also add items to the cart from local inventory.

We can work out a way to make the locations of physical items more readable as well as figuring out how to group entries in the cart.
