Unable to delete Peers from Netbird

[mtwardawski]

If we try to delete peers from LEA (not sure, if this also happens in CLEO when trying to delete peers, but most likely) we encounter an error in CARLs logs which has its origin in Netbird.

The deletion of a group in Netbird was not successful:

Received status code '400 Bad Request' when deleting NetBird group with ID <GroupId("cq8k7e70vv0s73abfjb0")>:
  {"message":"group has been linked to setup key: opendut-peer-32b3fbc4-aa5c-49dc-900d-935cd50af57e","code":400}

At the moment of writting the ticket, we have no particular solution. First steps could be to analyze the issue and try to make the deletion of peers in Netbird work.

AC:

• [ ] Analyze error
• [ ] Come up with a solution or solve the problem

using Netbird groups was a workaround for missing persistence handling the peer IDs. Revoking the setup string should allow deletion of group. --> maybe we can keep the groups for now and just revoke the setup string (group becomes unusable).

This has not been observed in a while. Might have been fixed by #18.
