[Feature Request]: IP Forwarding #92

Description

@Wojciech-Rozanski-CDT

Feature Description

Please implement the possibility to enable IP forwarding on a network interface. It should default to false, as it does currently, but we must have the possibility to adjust it.

(https://registry.terraform.io/providers/hashicorp/azurerm/latest/docs/resources/network_interface#ip_forwarding_enabled-1)

Use Case

This feature is rarely used and it a Microsoft security recommendation to keep it disabled, but there are certain situation where we need it enabled. One of those situations is during the deployment of network appliances, such as CAN VMs or Fortigate/Cisco/Palo Alto/etc. machines.

Additional Information

I had to recently enable this feature at THE via click-ops, and last week Launchpad reverted the change due to a deployment of another VM in the same Resource Group. I missed this in the pan and it caused a service disruption. I would prefer to avoid it in the future :)
