Due to setting aaaa_extra_create_reverse or a_extra_create_reverse when not
needed, host module fails to add a host with reverse address. This patch
fixes the behavior  by only adding *_extra_create_reverse when needed.

There is a new vaultcontainer management module placed in the plugins folder:

New tests added for the module:

  tests/service/test-service.yml

Use SomeADMINpassword as the admin password also in the examples in the
management modules.

For beeing able to catch ipalib.errors.NotFound errors in ipahost it is
needed to import ipalib.errors. ipalib.errors is now imported as
ipalib_errors to not have name conflicts with the errors list used in some
of the modules.

Related: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1804838

If no IP address is given and either DNS is not configured or if the zone is
not found then ipahost may not fail in dnsrecord_find.

The error happened for example by ensuring the absence of a host that is not
part of the domain or for a host that has been added with force and is using
a domain that is not served by the DNS server in the domain. It also
happened if there was no DNS server in the domain at all.

A new test case has been added to test_host_ipaddresses.yml

The fix requires ipalib_errors provided by ansible_freeipa_module.

Fixes: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1804838

The check to make sure that member can not be used on non existing hosts
has bee missing. Also the reverse flag for the dnsrecord_add call was None
if the varaible was not set.

Fixes: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1803026

This change is needed to properly handle base64 encoding of certificates
stored as bytes, under Python 3, as used by IPA service. It does not
affect Python 2.7 as bytes are identical to str in this version of the
language.

When retireving certificates stored by FreeIPA service data is returned
as bytes, under Python 3, and encoding then breaks, as there is no
bytes.public_bytes method. In Python 3, encoding with base64 will be the
same for strings and bytes.

ipahost was so far ignoring IP addresses when the host already existed.
This happened because host_mod is not providing functionality to do this.
Now ipaddress is a list and it is possible to ensure a host with several
IP addresses (these can be IPv4 and IPv6). Also it is possible to ensure
presence and absence of IP addresses for an exising host using action
member.

There are no IP address conclict checks as this would lead into issues with
updating an existing host that already is using a duplicate IP address for
example for round-robin (RR). Also this might lead into issues with ensuring
a new host with several IP addresses in this case. Also to ensure a list of
hosts with changing the IP address of one host to another in the list would
result in issues here.

New example playbooks have been added:

    playbooks/host/host-present-with-several-ip-addresses.yml
    playbooks/host/host-member-ipaddresses-absent.yml
    playbooks/host/host-member-ipaddresses-present.yml

A new test has been added for verification:

    tests/host/test_host_ipaddresses.yml

Fixes: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1783976
       https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1783979

Bool types are not iterable. Therefore the comparison using sets was failing
with a TypeError. This prevented to change the bool parameters for hosts.

A test for the host module has been added to verify that the bool parameters
can be modified.

New test:

  tests/host/test_host_bool_params.yml

Fixes: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1784514

Changing members (host, hostgroup, hbacsvc, hbacsvcgroup, user, group) with
action hbacrule was not working due to the use of the wrong parameter
prefix. This has been fixed and the old members are removed correctly now.

The test script has been reworked completely to verify the fix.

Fixes: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1787996

If the name is not set, the policy global_policy is now used. It was needed
before to explicitly name the global_policy. Also a check has been added
to fail early if global_policy is used with state absent.

The README for pwpolicy has been extended with an example for global_policy
and also the description of the name variable.

The test has also been extended to check a change of maxlife for
global_policy and that global_policy can not be used with state: absent

Fixes: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1797532

This patch adds the following attributes to ipasudorule:

    - order
    - sudooption
    - runasuser
    - runasgroup

It also fixes behavior of sudocmd assigned to the the sudorule, with the
adittion of the attributes:

    - allow_sudocmds
    - deny_sudocmds
    - allow_sudocmdgroups
    - deny_sudocmdgroups

README-sudorule and tests have been updated to comply with the changes.

This fixes the issue https://github.com/freeipa/ansible-freeipa/issues/185, where the python script was launching an exception
There was a lack of verification that the input string (for the description) was a text string

The failure message if member parameters like certificate, managedby_host,
principal, allow_create_keytab_* and allow_retrieve_keytab_* are used
without member action for state absent has been enhanced to propose the
member action.

It was not possible to reset the userauthtype. The empty string has been
added to userauthtype for this.

Also ipauser will only depend on given first and last name if the user
does not exist yet. For the update operation these parameters are not
needed anymore.

The choices for the auth_ind parameter have been wrong. The choices are now
['radius', 'otp', 'pkinit', 'hardened', '']. The empty string has been added
to be able to rest auth_ind for the host entry.

There is a new vault management module placed in the plugins folder:

  plugins/modules/ipavault.py

The vault module allows to ensure presence and absence of vaults, manage
members and owner of the vault, and archive data in the vault.

Here is the documentation for the module:

    README-vault.md

New example playbooks have been added:

    playbooks/vault/data-archive-in-asymmetric-vault.yml

New tests added for the module:

    tests/vault/test_vault.yml

If there is no domain set for email addresses, extend the email addresses
with the default email domain that is gathered from the config_show output.

This fixes RHBZ#1747413 ([ansible-freeipa] user module throwing an error if..)

There are some commands in the IPA API that do not require
arguments, and current implementation does not allow these
commands to be execute.

This patch adds api_command_no_name to allow the execution
of such commands, which is required, for example, to create
a vaultcontainer management module.

The ipahost management module was not able to add several hosts at once.
Addtionally there have been settings missing.

ansible_freeipa_module has been extended to provide two additional functions
that are needed to simplify the extension of the ipahost module:

    gen_add_del_lists(user_list, res_list)
    encode_certificate(cert)

gen_add_del_lists will generate the lists for the addition and removal of
members using the provided user and ipa settings.

encode_certificate will encode a certificate using base64 with also taking
FreeIPA and Python versions into account.

The missing settings in ipahost have been:

    certificate
    managedby_host
    principal
    create_keytab_[user,group,host,hostgroup]
    retrieve_keytab_[user,group,host,hostgroup]
    sshpubkey
    userclass
    auth_ind
    requires_pre_auth
    ok_as_delegate
    ok_to_auth_as_delegate

The README-host.md file has been updated to provide information about the
new settings and also the members. Also examples for the new things have
been added.

New example playbooks have been added:

The use of gssapi.creds.Credentials is not good if krb5 ticket forwarding
is used. It will fail. gssapi.Credentials with usage and store is the proper
way to do this.

This patch allows the connection to the ipa api to use a context different
than 'server', if needed.

The random password is only returned if random is yes and the host did
not exist or update_password is yes.

If only one host is handled by the module, the returned dict is containing
this dict:

  { "randompassword": "<the host random password>" }

If several hosts are handled by the module (future feature):

  { "<host>": { "randompassword": "<the host random password>" } }

Fixes issue #134 (ipahost does not return the random password)

The random password is only returned if random is yes and user did not exist
or update_password is yes.

If only one user is handled by the module, the returned dict is containing
this dict:

  { "randompassword": "<the user random password>" }

If several users are handled by the module:

  { "<user>": { "randompassword": "<the user random password>" } }

This is related to issue #134 (ipahost does not return the random password)

New tests added for the module:

  tests/hbacrule/test_sudorule.yml

The changed flag returned by ipahostgroup calls have not always been correct.
The use of the module with IPA version 4.6 on RHEL-7 resulted in encoding
errors. All this has been fixed.

Addtitionally new test cases have been added to make sure that the issues
are solved.

There is a new hbacrule (HBAC Rule) management module placed in the plugins
folder:

New tests added for the module:

  tests/hbacrule/test_hbacrule.yml

The information about the version limitation of the passwordexpiration
parameter has been missing. The parameter is only usable for IPA versions
4.7 and up.

The changed flag returned by ipagroup calls have not been correct. This
change fixes this. Addtitionally new test cases have been added to make
sure that the changed flag is correct.

group_add_member is only supporting services in more recent IPA versions.
This is 4.7+. Code has been added to detect if services are supported by
the used IPA version and used in the parameters of the module. In this case
an error is printed.

Additionally all parameters will be get from the module using
module_params_get provided by ansible_freeipa_module. Additional to_text
conversions have been removed as they are not needed anymore with this.
