Clear Spoolman location when spool is removed from AMS

Previously, when syncing to Spoolman, the location field was set to the
  printer/AMS slot but was never cleared when the spool was removed from
  the AMS.

  Now during sync, the system tracks which tray UUIDs are currently in the
  AMS and clears the location for any spools that were previously at this
  printer but are no longer present.

  Changes:
  - Add clear_location parameter to update_spool() method
  - Add find_spools_by_location_prefix() to find spools at a printer
  - Add clear_location_for_removed_spools() to clear stale locations
  - Update sync_printer_ams and sync_all_printers endpoints to clear
    locations for removed spools after syncing
