As documented in #2623, early variable substitution causes when_
tests to fail and possibly other side effects.
I can see the reason for this early substitution, likely introduced
in 1dfe60a6, to allow many playbook parameters to be templated.
This is a valid goal, but the recursive nature of the utils.template
function means that it goes too far.
At this point removing tasks from the list of parameters to be
substituted seems sufficient to make my tests pass. It may be the
case that other parameters should be excluded, but I suspect not.
Adding a test case. I would prefer to analyse not just the aggregate
statistics but also whether the results are as expected - I can't
see an easy way to do that with the available callbacks at present.
When operating on a unicode string in python 2.6, shlex.split returns
a result that does not work with the file constructor.
To reproduce this requires a task include that is templated (this is
because the templated string is a unicode result, whereas a non-
templated string is a non-unicode string)

The proposed fix (coercing the include parameters to string before the
shlex.split) may not be ideal but it does fix the bug for my test case.
When the output of a command is stored in a register, this will create a
stdout_lines field in the result object that contains stdout split into a list
of lines. This list can then be iterated over using with_items.

on_skipped callback being passed an extra item parameter that it wasn't
expecting.
Fixed it so that on_skipped in TestCallbacks accepts and ignores the
extra parameter
Extra parameter was added in 4b9b9a8a5b

This flag will show playbook output from non-failing commands. -v is also added to /usr/bin/ansible, but not yet used.
I also gutted some internals code dealing with 'invocations' which allowed the callback to know what module invoked
it. This is not something 0.5 does or needed, so callbacks have been simplified.
In playbooks, hosts can be a YAML list. We templated the list before
converting it to a semicolon-separated string, which actually templated its
repr. This converts to a string first. A basic unit test is included.
If we want to test playbooks, it's best to test the result of a playbook to make sure it does the correct thing. Also
remove playbook2/3 yml which were not used.
not being consistent between runs, even though there wasn't an error. Now we'll just check the final change
counts, which should be just as solid and lead to less churn in the events file.
