Background
We've observed large numbers of low-level alerts for some customers, due to a handful of Wiz rules failing for a large number of resources. The current dedup behaviour of the Panther rule is to group based on the resource ID. This PR alters the behaviour to dedup low-level alerts based on the Wiz rule ID instead, ensuring that low-severity policies that fail against many resources don't generate alert storms.
This should be more useful to Panther customers as well, since they get 1 alert informing them that many resources have failed the policy.
Simulations testing this against alert metadata from several volunteering customers say alert reductions between 10%-50%
