Reintroduce deprecated Topology widget layouts in SevOne Data Insight

In earlier versions of SevOne Data Insight, the Topology widget supported multiple layout options, including Organic, Sequential, Lens, Standard, Structural, and Tweak. These layouts provided flexibility in visualizing network maps in a structured and meaningful way.

In the current versions, these layouts have been deprecated and replaced with a single default layout. As a result, nodes are positioned in a seemingly random manner, and the ability to visualize topology in organized patterns (such as cyclical or structured layouts) is no longer available.

This change has significantly impacted usability, particularly for customers who relied on layouts like Organic for better visualization and interpretation.

We request that the previously available layouts especially the Organic layout be reintroduced, or that equivalent functionality be provided to restore the earlier level of visualization flexibility.
