Ian Wienand 0089a2f905 ensure-pip: remove Xenial venv workaround
This was introduced with Id8347b6b09735659a7ed9bbe7f9d2798fbec9620,
but is no longer necessary as the OpenDev images don't ship with
pip-and-virtualenv.  Remove to avoid any ongoing confusion.

Ensure pip is available

This role is intended install the requirements for the pip module on hosts.

Jobs that also wish to call pip via shell commands directly can also use this to ensure pip is available. However, it should be noted that calling pip is ambiguous when supporting many platforms. On some platforms it may install the package under the Python 2 interpreter and in others Python 3. You should use a qualified name (pip2 or pip3) to avoid confusion.

Role Variables

Output Variables

This variable will be set to a command appropriate for general usage with the pip module virtualenv_command argument on the host. On Python 3 hosts this will be the inbuilt venv module, on Python 2 hosts the virtualenv package will be installed (this is avoided on Python 3 hosts as an unnecessary dependency).
