Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Magnets can be turned off individually or in a string (i.e. one power supply turns multiple magnets on and off)

Describe the solution you'd like We would like to be able to turn off magnets individually or by area. This requires knowing which magnets have a single power supply or are on a string.

Describe alternatives you've considered Turning off all magnets in an area, and not having individual control. Not having this option at all in lcls-tools.

Additional context Will require a lot of digging around in the EDM panels and the control system to know which magnets are stringed together. PV to find the control magnet for a string is 'MAIN' : BEND:HTR:820:MAIN. This PV returns a MAD name of a magnet with a 'turn off' PV.
