v1.4.2: fixes regression bug in 1.4.1 (Kathleen Booth)

IMPORTANT:

VM role assignment is not done by default anymore. If a role assignment for a VM is desired, the vm_role_relation must be defined in the config options for this source.

Bugfixes:

• fixes issue with assignment of default role for device. VM role assignment is optional. #305

v1.4.1: minor bug fixes (Kathleen Booth)

IMPORTANT:

Config options host_role_relation and vm_role_relation didn't work as intended. If unset or no match the default role
Server would be assigned. From now on no role assignment will take place if not explicitly enabled.

Bugfixes:

• Issue with config options 'overwrite_device/vm_interface_name' set to False on initial syncs #287
• VM device not set if strip_host_domain_name = True #294
• fix issues with older python "requests" libraries #298
• stop assigning default role "Server" to NetBox Host/VM objects if config option is undefined/does not match #299
