paramiko python module appears to be required for brocade_facts.py #211

Description

@t8910653

In a new python3 (3.14.7) venv, after installing ansible via pip and getting 2.21.3, and installing the brocade.fos collection via ansible-galaxy getting 2.1.0, the brocade_facts.py module fails with a module dependency asking for paramiko.
After installing paramiko via pip, brocade_facts is working.
