`ModelViewSet` automatically registers the model to the reference index

Models that are registered with a ModelViewSet now have reference index tracking enabled by default. This means that you no longer need to call ReferenceIndex.register_model() in your app's ready() method for such models. If this is undesired, you can disable it by setting {attr}~wagtail.admin.viewsets.model.ModelViewSet.add_to_reference_index to False on the ModelViewSet subclass. For more details, see .
