How do we sit with Ansible 12.0.0 compatibility ?

Hi all. As the title says, how do we sit with Ansible 12.0.0 compatibility? Time to update netlab packages!

Still here #2684

It's not just that we need to fix the internal Jinja2 templates to use an alternative to ipaddr (I think that's the main show-stopper), it's also that any template that uses x._y is defined is probably going to crash due to 12.0.0 hate of underscores.

@ipspace Thank you. Ill mark the packages broken for now. Many rolling distros have moved on to 12+ by now, and most do not have older versions still available in the repos.

Using a month-old version with a page-long list of breaking changes as the only option. What could possibly go wrong 🤦‍♂️

Netlab packages for Open SUSE Tumbleweed are back. We got Ansible-11 in Addition to the current Ansible, packaged by the distro. I guess enough people complained
