Is netaddr a unused dependency?

[suliuzh]

Hi I noticed that netaddr was removed from source code in pull #1315. At the same time, ipaddress was used. But in configuration files such as requirements-min.txt, netaddr is still listed as a direct dependency. So is netaddr a unused dependency? Should ipaddress be listed as a direct dependency?

above code is indeed now using a Python stdlib package https://docs.python.org/3.9/library/ipaddress.html

however, other dependencies of crossbar still use netaddr - indirectly:

(cpy39_10) (base) oberstet@intel-nuci7:~/scm/crossbario/crossbar$ pipdeptree --reverse --packages netaddr

IOW: it is correct as it is
