Previously, includes had to receive variables via a special 'vars'
field. With this patch, the include syntax becomes a more natural
datastructure without special fields and is more akin to the way
role includes/dependencies work.
Tested with the following playbook:
---
- hosts: localhost
connection: local
tasks:
- { include: inc1.yml, a: 1 }
- include: inc2.yml
b: 2
- include: inc3.yml
with_items:
- x
- y
- z
Fixes#3481
Still compatible with user: but deprecating it so we can have
a matching remote_user: in tasks, cannot be user: because of the
module of the same name. #3932

The play was just checking for the presence of the keyword in the
YAML datastructure, and not the value of the field, so doing something
like variable substitution was always causing the play to be accelerated
* Default variables are now fed directly into roles, just like the
other variables, so that roles see their unique values rather
than those set at the global level.
* Role dependency duplicates are now determined by checking the params used
when specifying them as dependencies rather than just on the name of the
role. For example, the following would be included twice without having
to specify "allow_duplicates: true":
dependencies:
- { role: foo, x: 1 }
- { role: foo, x: 2 }
The 'always_run' task clause allows one to execute a task even in
check mode.
While here implement Runner.noop_on_check() to check if a runner
really should execute its task, with respect to check mode option
and 'always_run' clause.
Also add the optional 'jinja2' argument to check_conditional() :
it allows to give this function a jinja2 expression without exposing
the 'jinja2_compare' implementation mechanism.
Tests `test_playbook_undefined_varsX_fail` check if ansible detects
undefined variables when `error_on_undefined_vars` is enabled. These
tests fail without "Improve behavior with error_on_undefined_vars
enabled" patch.
Tests `test_playbook_undefined_varsX_ignore` check if ansible ignores
undefined variables when `error_on_undefined_vars` is disabled.
Also modify PlayBook._run_task_internal() so error_on_undefined_vars is
testable.
The block that added the original list of roles was indented too far,
and was only being reached if a role had dependencies. This resulted
in roles without dependencies from being added to the list of roles.
Credit goes to looped for reporting and diagnosing the issue.
