As suggested in #482364 I'm trying to move the netbox plugins to a package set.

I'm unsure if I added the plugins to netbox_4_5 properly. Feel free to advise me on how to do this.

If this is being merged before netbox_4_4 has been removed, the plugins also need to be copied to netbox_4_4 and downgraded to the appropriate versions (see netbox compability matrix of individual plugin).

I think I finally got it. So should we copy the plugins to netbox_4_4, to use the correct versions for the current netbox version on nixpkgs-25.11 or do we ignore this, as it's being upgraded to netbox_4_5 in a few weeks anyway?
These packages got updated by this (#482364) bulk update, which was the reason why I opened this pr.

Thanks for doing this! I learned the existence of packagesFromDirectoryRecursive, very useful.

Nah, I don't think we need to do this.

The NetBox 4.4 package is marked as EOL, and the only reason we have multiple version of NetBox in nixpkgs is because I couldn't find a proper way to communicate to the user "be careful when doing this major NixOS upgrade, you might need to manually migrate some of your NetBox data". The current implementation requires the user to change the value of services.netbox.package to acknowledge that there's a breaking change.
