Adds a new ``ansible`` deploy interface. It targets mostly undercloud
use-case by allowing greater customization of provisioning process.
This new deploy interface is usable only with hardware types.
It is set as supported for a ``generic`` hardware type and all
its subclasses, but must be explicitly enabled in the
``[DEFAULT]enabled_deploy_interfaces`` configuration file option
to actually allow setting nodes to use it.
For migration from the ``staging-ansible`` interface from the
``ironic-staging-drivers`` project to this ``ansible`` interface,
operators have to consider the following differences:
- Callback-less operation is not supported.
- Node's ``driver_info`` fields ``ansible_deploy_username`` and
``ansible_deploy_key_file`` are deprecated and will be removed
in the Rocky release. Instead, please use ``ansible_username`` and
``ansible_key_file`` respectively.
- Base path for playbooks can be defined in the node's
``driver_info['ansible_playbooks_path']`` field. The default is the value
of the ``[ansible]/playbooks_path`` option from the ironic configuration
file.
- Default playbooks for actions and cleaning steps file can be set in
ironic configuration file as various ``[ansible]/default_*`` options.
