NetBox version

4.3.0 and later

Python version

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create whatever VM
2. Create service for VM

    netbox.netbox.netbox_service:
      netbox_url: "{{ netbox_url }}"
      netbox_token: "{{ netbox_rw_token }}"
      validate_certs: "{{ netbox_validate_certs }}"
      data:
        name: "{{ service_create.name | mandatory }}"
        protocol: "{{ service_create.protocol | lower | mandatory }}"
        description: "{{ service_create.description | default(omit) }}"
        device: "{{ service_create.device | default(omit) }}"
        ipaddresses: "{{ service_create.ipaddresses | default(omit) }}"
        port: "{{ service_create.port | default(omit) }}"
        ports: "{{ service_create.ports | default(omit) }}"
        tags: "{{ service_create.tags | default(omit) }}"
        virtual_machine: "{{ service_create.virtual_machine | default(tenant_vm.name) }}"
    vars:
      service_create:
        name: test_service_https
        protocol: tcp
        virtual_machine: <existing_vm>
        ports: [443]

Expected Behavior

Be able to create/lookup more than one service

Nothing new, just fix for #1427

Observed Behavior

And now we can test netbox_service is failing on:

services = 0 - if there's no service with this name in Netbox - just OK - is created

services = 1 - if there's exactly one service with this name in Netbox - always reassign service to last ```parent_object_id` - KO

--- before

@@ -1,2 +1,2 @@
-    parent_object_id: 267
+    parent_object_id: 264

services > 1 - if there are more services with same name already in Netbox - KO

 msg: More than one result returned for ...

---

This change is maybe missing parent_object_type and parent_object_id in query set?
