Adds original_transport attribute to Runner to track what the original
transport was before it is changed to 'accelerate'.
If using paramiko in original_transport, uses ParamikoConnection. If
not, falls back to SSHConnection like before.
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 }
Caveats:
* requiretty must be disabled in the sudoers config
* asking for a password doesn't work yet, so any sudoers users must
be configured with NOPASSWD
* if not starting the daemon as root, the user running the daemon
must have sudoers entries to allow them to run the command as the
target sudo_user
Still needs:
* chunked file transfer/receive
* should probably move all send/recv operations to separate
functions to reduce code duplication
* initial connection setup over ssh? or do we handle that in runner?
This is based somewhat loosely on how Keyczar does things. Their
implementation does things in a much more generic way to allow for more
variance in how the cipher is created, but since we're only using one
key type most of our values are hard-coded. They also add a header to
their messages, which I am not doing (don't see the need for it
currently).
Files were being created in /tmp, but will now be created in $HOME/.ansible/cp/

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.
For some reason, ssh seems to ask for password even when
PasswordAuthentication is set to no, adding PreferredAuthentications
with the 2 options removed do the trick.
