NetBox version

v4.2.1

Feature type

Change to existing functionality

Triage priority

N/A

Proposed functionality

add "Paused" or "Suspended" to list of default vm status's

Use case

most Virtualisation solutions allow vm's to be paused or suspended.
The default list of status fields for vm's should be extended to allow for documenting this
(I know the list can be extended by modifying configuration files, but it feels like this should be part of the default list)

Database changes

No response

External dependencies

No response

I can handle it if needed.
To be honest the hardest part knowing which color is the best for each status

@antoinekh assigned to you.

IMO it's okay to reuse colors (sparingly) for similar statuses.
