SSL: WRONG_VERSION_NUMBER

This is a dependency problem that should be documented at least. Another solution is to hardcode in the requirements a version of urllib3 without the bug.

the issue is the same as described here:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/65516325/ssl-wrong-version-number-on-python-request

there are 2 solutions/workarounds

in the env environment, when writing the netbox URL, use "http://" instead of "https://"
install a bug free version of urllib3

when running the script i got the following

(venv) anubisg1@CZPRG-6VJY9Y3:~/Device-Type-Library-Import$ ./nb-dt-import.py
