[PATCH v1 26/26] Add an Ansible requirements.yml file

[Chuck Lever <cel@kernel.org>]

From: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com>

Commit b90d89d27659 ("Switch to the cloud.terraform.terraform
module") introduced the use of the cloud.terraform module, and
commit 7ccb64834eeb ("guestfs: Replace scripts/destroy_guestfs.sh
with an Ansible playbook") introduced the use of the
community.libvirt module. It would be friendly if kdevops could
pull in the Ansible modules it needs transparently.

The requirements.yml file is a manifest of Ansible collections that
the project needs to run. Installation of these collections is made
automatic by adding:

  ansible-galaxy install -r requirements.yml

to the "make ansible_cfg" step. This mechanism can keep cached
versions of collections up to date, and can also constrain a
cached collection to a specific version, if that's needed.

The initial file contains requirements I could find easily, and
should be updated over time as new collection dependencies are
introduced.

Question: Do we assume that the Ansible controller has internet
access all the time?
