Fastly Purge by URLs

Problem/Motivation

We get requests every once in awhile to "Purge specific URLs from Fastly". I would love to add some simple feature for this to the admin side and allow for a CMS user to do this functionality without access to the Fastly Admin

Proposed resolution

I created a patch to add the feature to the Fastly Module:

• Admin page where CMS user can submit a URL to be purged.
• A single permission to allow a user role to either view this admin page, or see the form item on an existing form.
• The actual submit function just needs to run as tge command:
  "\Drupal::service('fastly.api')->purgeUrl('$urlToBePurged');"

In the form class, dependency injection is used:

$this->api->purgeUrl(trim($url))

User interface changes

It is creating a New tab
