* render variables from context of current host

* add integration test for cross host merge

* lint fixes

* adjust cross host merge unit tests to provide a tiny bit of the HostVars Class API

* add license information

* lint

* add changelog fragment

* Update tests/integration/targets/lookup_merge_variables/test_cross_host_merge_play.yml

Okay
