This reverts commit 0aca372814.
This uses the variable ensure_pip_from_upstream_interpreters to
install python-venv packages.
ensure_pip_from_upstream_interpreters is documented as being a list of
python interpreters to run "get-pip.py" with to install pip globally.
This only happens if ensure_pip_from_upstream is set to True.
It's unclear from the original discussion in the change at least, what
this was trying to fix. It's also unclear why this would skip
packages, and what circumstances that is required in. It's now
causing more confusion as we try to add fixes ontop of that.
Revert this -- whatever this is doing, we should find the right way to
do it, which isn't this.

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.
This role will also install wheel components sufficient
to run bdist_wheel builds or pip wheel on a
source tree.
Role Variables
Output Variables
This variable will be set to a command appropriate for general usage with the
pipmodulevirtualenv_commandargument on the host. On Python 3 hosts this will be the inbuiltvenvmodule, on Python 2 hosts thevirtualenvpackage will be installed (this is avoided on Python 3 hosts as an unnecessary dependency).
