salt.utils.network.cidr_to_ipv4_netmask() has existed for years but was
never registered as a Jinja filter, so templates could not render a
dotted-decimal netmask from a CIDR prefix length with
`{{ prefix | cidr_to_ipv4_netmask }}`. Add the @jinja_filter decorator
(the import is already present), document it alongside the other network
filters, and test that it is registered.
Follow-up to saltstack#69231, which added the rest of the IP/network jinja filters.

Exposes the existing
salt.utils.network.cidr_to_ipv4_netmask()function as a Jinja filter so templates can render a dotted-decimal IPv4 netmask from a CIDR prefix length:{{ 24 | cidr_to_ipv4_netmask }}renders
255.255.255.0.What issues does this PR fix or reference?
Follow-up to #69231, which added the other IP/network Jinja filters.
cidr_to_ipv4_netmask()has shipped insalt.utils.networkfor years; only the@jinja_filterregistration was missing, so it could be called from Python but not used as a Jinja filter.Previous Behavior
cidr_to_ipv4_netmask()was not registered as a Jinja filter, so{{ prefix | cidr_to_ipv4_netmask }}raised an undefined-filter error.New Behavior
The function is registered with
@jinja_filter("cidr_to_ipv4_netmask")(the decorator is already imported insalt/utils/network.py), documented alongside the other network filters, and covered by a test asserting it is registered. No behavior change to the function itself.Merge requirements satisfied?
