Fix custom_filed KeyError traceback

[Kani999]

• Closes #457

[srfwx]

We need it for Objects and Multiple Objects custom fields (although it needs to be adapted too)

[Kani999]

Okay, so it should return something like.

Object: inventory-item Custom Fileds:

• test_json_custom_field {'x': 1, 'y': 2} - JSON
• test_list_custom_field ['x', 'y'] - MultipleSelection
• test_multiple_objects_custom_field [Dev1, Dev2] - MultipleObjects (Device)
• abra_discovered False - Boolean
• asset_numbers T5060 - String
• inventarizace {'x': 1, 'y': 2} - JSON inventory_monitor_last_probe 2022-11-23 - Date inventory_monitor_probe - Probe - Object (from plugin)

Or it just should return the ids

   "device":61,

         "y":2
      },
      "test_list_custom_field":[
         "x",
         "y"
      ],
      "test_multiple_objects_custom_field":[
         1,
         119,

Uploaded version

• This approach has a caveats:
  • If JSON custom field has an 'id' as a key, it will return its value.

Is there any chance this pull request can be reviewed and merged into an upstream version of pynetbox? We're hitting the same bug when trying to create netbox_prefix via ansible with custom_fields.

Will take a look into it, probably Wed or Thursday before I can get to it.
