Closes #19944: Add multi-scenario CSV import testing support with cleanup (#20302)

* Closes #19944: Add multi-scenario CSV import testing support with cleanup

Enhanced BulkImportObjectsViewTestCase to support multiple CSV import scenarios via dictionary format,
where each scenario runs as a separate subtest with automatic cleanup. This enables testing different
import configurations (e.g., with/without optional fields) in a single test run with clear output
showing which scenario is being tested.

Introduces cleanupSubTest() context manager that uses database savepoints to automatically roll back
changes between subtests, providing test isolation similar to separate test methods. This allows
subtests to create/modify objects without affecting subsequent subtests in the same test method.

Added post_import_callback parameter to bulk import tests, allowing child classes to inject custom
assertions that run before database cleanup. This solves the inheritance problem where child classes
need to verify imported data but the parent's cleanup would roll back the data before assertions could
run.

The callback approach is cleaner than conditional cleanup parameters - it makes the execution timing
explicit and maintains test isolation while still allowing extensibility.

* Fixup ModuleTypeTestCase bulk import test to work with callback mechamisn

* Update CableTestCase to use expanded CSV scenario testing

* Remove unneeded permission cleanup
