Remove outdated azure-iot-hub from requirements #1512

SUMMARY

PR removes azure-iot-hub from the requirements list as it depends on the now deprecated azure-uamqp-python that is failing to build on popular systems such as Mac ARM and Linux ARM on Python 3.12+.

azure-iot-hub itself hasn't had any updates in several years and is specific to one part of Azure functionality, IoTHub, that is probably better handled as an opt in at this time until it's been updated to no longer depend on deprecated packages.

Stale and depends on deprecated packages that don't build on all systems

@gygitlab We can't remove this directly because we also need the package 'azure-iot-hub' to manage Iot-related resources. If you want to discard, you need to replace the package with another package. Thank you!

Thanks @Fred-sun and fair enough.

Nonetheless you have a problem then as that package hasn't been updated in 2 years and a package it subsequently depends on (azure-uamqp-python) is now deprecated and does not build on Mac ARM devices or Linux ARM devices running on Python 3.12+ - This prevents the entire Ansible collection from being run on these devices. It's likely this blast radius will increase.

The way I see it you have 2 choices - Find someone who can update azure-iot-hub to remove it's dependency on the now deprecated azure-uamqp-python package, which from the looks of things has had no activity in years or remove this hard dependency from the collection and make it optional.

@gygitlab This PR is not compliant, so do you want to re-submit and replace the original dependency package, or close it temporarily and we will replace this package? Thank you!
