Enhance get-device-rules function to return rules configured via Panorama

[jamesholland-uk]

Environment

• Python version: 3.9.9
• Nautobot version: 1.2.8 via Docker Compose
• nautobot-chatops version: 1.7.0
• nautobot-plugin-chatops-panorama version: 1.1.0

Proposed Functionality

• Currently, the get-device-rules feature only returns rules configured locally on the managed firewalls.
• Ideally, as a plugin targeting Panorama specifically, the rules configured in Panorama and pushed to managed devices would also be included in the output from this function.

Use Case

• Most organisations using Panorama would push rules to firewalls from Panorama, as opposed to configure the rules locally on firewalls. Therefore, the usefulness of the get-device-rules would be dramatically increased by enhancing this feature.

I would agree with this request but upon further investigation of the PAN-OS SDK, it doesn't appear that you can see the rules that are in Panorama. It appears the SDK is focused on working with the firewalls directly using Panorama as a proxy. I think we would need to connect directly to the Panorama instance and run a command at the CLI to get this information.

I believe this should be included as part of the updates in #120.

This should be addressed so going to close.
