Added IPv6 raw address check and handling for underlying requests library
Description
When using the napalm plugin with the netbox-napalm-module, the underlying requests-library rejects requests when the hostname is not a resolvable FQDN or hostname, but a raw IPv6 address.
To address this, I introduced a quick check in the ArubaOSS-Class that checks if the hostname is an IPv6 address and encloses it in squared brackets [ip6], so it is handled correctly by the requests-library.
