Ian Wienand 3657cacfca Add logrotate role and rotate ansible log files 
Add a logrotate role that allows basic configuration of a logrotate
configuration for a specific log-file.

Use this role in the ansible-cron and install-ansible roles to ensure
the log output they are generating is rotated.

This role is not intended to manage the logrotate package (mostly to
avoid the overhead of frequently checking package state when this is
expected to be called for multiple configuration files on a server).
We add it as a base package to our servers.

Tests are added for testinfra.

Add log rotation file

Note

This role does not manage the logrotate package or configuration directory, and it is assumed to be installed and available.

This role installs a log rotation file in /etc/logrotate.d/ for a given file.

For information on the directives see logrotate.conf(5). This is not an exhaustive list of directives (contributions are welcome).
