T2276: Automate CARP VIP MAC reassignment using devd and OVH API
T2290: Installation of CARP switch Python dependencies via Salt

Summary

When the CARP device becomes active, the upstream router needs to be notified
of the address MAC of the device where to route traffic for the shared address.

For dedicated servers, the router is managed by our provider, not by us.
The first implementation is for hyper-001, hosted at OVH. An API is available
to update the MAC address.

We develop a Python script solution to trigger the API. Credentials are stored
in Vault.

26	We need a way to put 3.11 in a map to avoid to hunt version every time we update python.

Fix :

1.Add map to avoid to hunt version every time we update python.

2.Add installation of pip (is not installed on the routers).

ovh and secretsmith are now installed on the router-002 and router-003.

Fix :

Install pip using the OS-specific package prefix from map.jinja.

Use python.get_site_packages_directory() to avoid relying on Salt Python version detection, as it may differ from the system.

Rename python_pip state to carp_switch_pip to better reflect its purpose for the CARP switch automation.

25	We can simplify it and call package_prefixes here instead of needing the map only for one variable, can't we? That would coherent with what we do elsewhere.
