313f3ea4ec feat: Use verbosity-based logging in network role
- Replace no_log: true with no_log: "{{ ansible_verbosity < 3 }}"
  in all tasks (setup, service_facts, package_facts, and service tasks)
- This allows output to be shown when running with -vvv or higher verbosity
- The no_log was used for verbosity control, not security purposes

In the network role, no_log: true was used to reduce verbose output,
not to protect sensitive information. Using ansible_verbosity allows
users to see the output when debugging with increased verbosity flags.

b94f3d0993 feat: add role fingerprints to syslog
Feature: Add a fingerprint string to the system log to indicate when the role began
successfully, and when the role finished successfully.  The fingerprint string indicates
the role name, a timestamp, and the platform.

Reason: Users can see when the role was used and if it was used successfully.  This
information from the system log can be collected by log scanners and aggregators
for further analysis.

Result: The role logs fingerprints to the system log.

This also adds a test to check if the fingerprints were written upon a successful
role invocation.

0c590cdf5a refactor: improve support for ostree systems
The dependency on `ansible.utils.update_fact` is causing issue with
some users who now must install that collection in order to run
the role, even if they do not care about ostree.

The fix is to stop trying to set `ansible_facts.pkg_mgr`, and instead
force the use of the ostree package manager with the `package:` module
`use:` option.  The strategy is - on ostree systems, set the flag
`__$ROLENAME_is_ostree` if the system is an ostree system.  The flag
will either be undefined or `false` on non-ostree systems.
Then, change every invocation of the `package:` module like this:

```yaml
- name: Ensure required packages are present
  package:
    name: "{{ __$ROLENAME_packages }}"
    state: present
    use: "{{ (__$ROLENAME_is_ostree | d(false)) |
      ternary('ansible.posix.rhel_rpm_ostree', omit) }}"
```

This should ensure that the `use:` parameter is not used if the system
is non-ostree.  The goal is to make the ostree support as unobtrusive
as possible for non-ostree systems.
The user can also set `__$ROLENAME_is_ostree: true` in the inventory or play
if the user knows that ostree is being used and wants to skip the check.
Or, the user is concerned about the performance hit for ostree detection
on non-ostree systems, and sets `__$ROLENAME_is_ostree: false` to skip
the check.
The flag `__$ROLENAME_is_ostree` can also be used in the role or tests to
include or exclude tasks from being run on ostree systems.

This fix also improves error reporting in the `get_ostree_data.sh` script
when included roles cannot be found.

9a16583783 feat: support for ostree systems
Feature: Allow running and testing the role with ostree managed nodes.

Reason: We have users who want to use the role to manage ostree
systems.

Result: Users can use the role to manage ostree managed nodes.

NOTE: The .ostree/packages-*.txt are generated by running the
script https://github.com/linux-system-roles/auto-maintenance/blob/main/check-logs-for-packages.sh
which is used with an integration test CI run with the
https://github.com/linux-system-roles/auto-maintenance/blob/main/callback_plugins/dump_packages.py
plugin.  An example of such a CI run is
https://github.com/linux-system-roles/network/pull/647

751c3fffca fix: facts being gathered unnecessarily
Cause: The comparison of the present facts with the required facts is
being done on unsorted lists.

Consequence: The comparison may fail if the only difference is the
order.  Facts are gathered unnecessarily.

Fix: Use `difference` which works no matter what the order is.  Ensure
that the fact gathering subsets used are the absolute minimum required.

Result: The role gathers only the facts it requires, and does
not unnecessarily gather facts.

3cbb6b24c1 add setup-snapshot.yml used to prepare testing snapshots
When running CI tests, test performance can be improved by creating a
snapshot image to use for the test, pre-installed with packages used by
the role tests.  The CI system can use tests/setup-snapshot.yml to
prepare the snapshot image.  Rather than having a list of packages to
install in multiple places, the code which ensures the facts and
variables is moved to a separate tasks/set_facts.yml so that the setup
playbook can use `tasks_from: set_facts.yml` to get the list of network
packages to install.  NOTE: The network role developers should add
additional packages to setup-snapshot.yml for other packages installed
by other tests.
