tamirsuliman-weathermap-panel (the plugin actually installed, not the
allamiro fork the schema research was done against) requires node.anchors
-- a numLinks/numFilledLinks tally per anchor position -- and expects
link.sides.*.anchor as the plugin's numeric TS enum value (Center=0,
Top=1, Bottom=2, Left=3, Right=4), not an anchor name string. Omitting
anchors entirely (per the "safe to omit, auto-defaulted" schema-research
note, which turns out to be fork-specific) crashed the panel on load with
"TypeError: undefined is not an object (evaluating 'i.anchors[0]')".
Enum values reverse-engineered from the installed plugin's module.js.

re.escape() escapes '-' as '\-', which Python's regex engine accepts
but PromQL's RE2 engine rejects outright (every hostname in this lab
is hyphenated, e.g. dc-leaf1). All 4 panel targets were failing with
"unknown escape sequence U+002D" until now. Also swaps the dashboard
to the newly-created NetLab datasource, which actually has gnmic data
(the previously-wired external Prometheus datasource had none).

Adds scripts/generate_weathermap.py: fetches device inventory and
connectivity-matrix from IPFabric, cross-checks IPFabric's abbreviated
interface names against the live gnmic exporter, and emits a Grafana
dashboard-as-code JSON (configs/grafana/weathermap-dashboard.json) with
the weathermap-ng panel wired to explicit legendFormat-resolved queries
for BGP status, interface tx/rx, and VXLAN MAC-per-VNI.
