WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why unassign_sdwan_template needs a policy

Unassigning an SD-WAN template modifies the configuration state of a network device by removing an applied template. This is a reversible write operation (the template can be reassigned), but the blast radius is high because removing SD-WAN configuration from a production firewall/device could disrupt network routing and connectivity for potentially many users or services.
