net-mgmt/netbox: Update to 2.9.8

* Limit the version ranges of the required Python packages and use very
  narrow ranges for those ones, which often cause regressions.

  That is because upstream already uses fixed Python package dependencies
  for a while and had relaxed them for a short period of time.

  However, because it led to regressions when some Python packages were
  updated during that time, upstream has been using fixed package
  dependencies again since then.

Changelog since 2.7.12:

It contains many bugfixes/enhancements and the following new features:

* Object-Based Permissions
* Background Execution of Scripts & Reports
* Named Virtual Chassis
* Changes to Tag Creation
* Dedicated Model for VM Interfaces
* REST API Endpoints for Users and Groups
* Remote Authentication Support
* Plugins

+  Changes related to the NetBox configuration:
+
+  1. If in use, LDAP authentication must be enabled by setting
+     REMOTE_AUTH_BACKEND to 'netbox.authentication.LDAPBackend'.  (The LDAP
+     configuration parameters in ldap_config.py remain unchanged.)
+
+  2. REMOTE_AUTH_DEFAULT_PERMISSIONS now takes a dictionary rather than a
+     list.  This is a mapping of permission names to a dictionary of
+     constraining attributes, or None.
+
+     For example, ['dcim.add_site', 'dcim.change_site'] would become
+     {'dcim.add_site': None, 'dcim.change_site': None}.
+
+  3. Support for the DEFAULT_TIMEOUT parameter under REDIS database
+     configuration was removed.  Set RQ_DEFAULT_TIMEOUT as a global
+     configuration parameter instead.
+
+  Please also check the pkg-message and the changelogs for further info.
