Feature request: "flatten" option for microsoft.ad.group

[Yannik]

SUMMARY

For those of us working with hybrid on-premise ad/entra id environments, it can be a constant nuisance that entra does not support nested groups for lots of things, for example app role assigments. [1]

It would be incredibly helpful to have a flatten parameter on the microsoft.ad.group module, which, when going over set/add/remove items, checks if that item is a group, and, if it is, replaces that with its (flattened) members.

The resulting group will therefore be flat (only having direct members, no groups as members), making it suitable for use with azure ad.

[1] " App role assignment, for both access and provisioning. Assigning groups to an app is supported, but any groups nested within the directly assigned group won't have access.", https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/identity/users/directory-service-limits-restrictions
