Dmitry Marakasov 13d7a61160 Fix crontab argument order for writing (#3750)
Currently, when writing user's crontab, ansible calls

    crontab <file> -u <user>

This is incorrect according to crontab(1) on both FreeBSD and Linux,
which suggest that file argument should be the last.

At least on FreeBSD, this leads to incorrect cron module bahavior which
writes to root's crontab instead of users's

# Cron Plugin: The goal of this plugin is to provide an indempotent method for
# setting up cron jobs on a host. The script will play well with other manually
# entered crons. Each cron job entered will be preceded with a comment
# describing the job so that it can be found later, which is required to be
# present in order for this plugin to find/modify the job.
#
# This module is based on python-crontab by Martin Owens.

module: cron
short_description: Manage cron.d and crontab entries.
description:
- Use this module to manage crontab and environment variables entries. This module allows
you to create environment variables and named crontab entries, update, or delete them.
- 'When crontab jobs are managed: the module includes one line with the description of the
crontab entry C("#Ansible: <name>") corresponding to the "name" passed to the module,
which is used by future ansible/module calls to find/check the state. The "name"
parameter should be unique, and changing the "name" value will result in a new cron
task being created (or a different one being removed).'
- 'When environment variables are managed: no comment line is added, but, when the module
needs to find/check the state, it uses the "name" parameter to find the environment
variable definition line.'

If this is a relative path, it is interpreted with respect to

To use the C(cron_file) parameter you must specify the C(user) as well.

The location of the backup is returned in the C(backup_file) variable by this module.
