T1762: Deploy NetBox

Summary

As demonstrated on P339, a custom service to run NetBox was written
in June 2023, which calls service.sh wrapper to run gunicorn.

This has been stabilized with several NetBox updates, so it's ready
to be added to this repository.

This change does NOT currently install NetBox itself.

Test Plan

Deploy on WindRiver

dereckson held this revision as a draft.

Some changes planned:

debug why service.sh doesn't work as sh script but works when called by bash (it was a bash script where I've s/source/.)
fix pid grok so we can determine status correctly
pillar to document Python version in venv

roles/netbox/server/files/rc/netbox
44	The check on pid to determine if the service is running uses procname to ensure it's the RIGHT process at that pid. So currently, we've: WindRiver $ /usr/local/etc/rc.d/netbox status netbox is not running. $ cat /var/run/netbox/netbox.pid 79164 $ ps auxw \| grep 79164 netbox 79164 0.0 0.0 42124 28384 - S 23:04 0:00.12 /srv/netbox/venv/bin/python3.11 /srv/netbox/venv/bin/gunicorn --pid /var/run/netbox/netbox.pid --pythonpath / In that context, `$procname` needs to be be "/srv/netbox/venv/bin/python3.11"

30	template: jinja context: netbox_python_interpreter: /srv/netbox/venv/bin/python3.11 Python 3.11 version should be taken from a pillar, as we aren't dependant of the current OS default Python version.
