Add support to plugins

Hello dear sir.
it would be nice to add custom plugins to local_requirements.txt and install them automatically.

a task in the file configure.yml similar to this one can do the job:

- name: configure | add the custom plugins local_requirements.txt
  ansible.builtin.lineinfile:
    path: "{{ netbox_current_path }}/local_requirements.txt"
    line: "{{ item.name }}"
    regexp: "^{{ item.name }}"
    owner: "{{ netbox_user }}"
    mode: '0644'
    create: yes
  with_items: "{{ netbox_plugins }}"

I'm using the already present variable netbox_plugins to generate the list of names to be added to the local_requirements.txt

I might open a PR but I suspect you are already working on something like this.
let me know.

Best

Missing packages when installing on Fedora

I used this role successfully on Fedora 37 (see #57 ).

I had to add some packages to get it working, see this playbook:

- name: 'Install netbox'
  hosts: 'all'
  gather_facts: true
  become: true

  pre_tasks:

    - name: Install cronie
      ansible.builtin.package:
        name: cronie
        state: present

    - name: Install acl
      ansible.builtin.package:
        name: acl
        state: present

    - name: Install python3-django
      ansible.builtin.package:
        name: python3-django
        state: present

  roles:
    - role: 'jvoss.netbox'

If desired I can add a PR to make the role install those packages on Fedora.
