Install distro-specific OpenLDAP, SASL, SSL, libffi and build toolchain packages
(Arch, Debian/Ubuntu, Fedora/CentOS) before installing python-ldap to ensure the
module can be built and imported in the Ansible runtime.

- Add global_install flag to sys-pip-install role (default: false)
- Allow optional system-wide installs via pip3 with --break-system-packages
- Install python-ldap via pip in Ansible interpreter for OpenLDAP role
- Refactor svc-db-openldap tasks into 01_core.yml with run-once gating
- Fix environment handling for conditional global pip installs
- Enable global pip installs for CLI tools (gitcon, ldapsm, backup tools, cleanup tools)

Introduce DOCKER_REACH_HOST as a single source of truth for service
reachability checks (wait_for), decoupled from DOCKER_BIND_HOST.
- Default reach host is 127.0.0.1 for host-based execution
- Automatically override to Docker bridge gateway when running
inside a container (Docker socket mounted)
- Add custom docker_bridge_gateway module for reliable detection
- Update all wait_for tasks to use DOCKER_REACH_HOST
- Remove ad-hoc debug TCP probing logic
This ensures consistent behavior across host runs and
container-based control nodes without breaking existing setups.

Migrate most roles from community.general.pacman to the generic package module for better portability. Keep pacman where it is required (system upgrades and Arch-specific tasks). Split VirtualBox setup into an Arch-only task file and add a warning when skipped on non-Arch systems. Update integration test examples accordingly.

This commit updates multiple roles to ensure compatibility with Ansible 2.20.
Several include paths and task-loading mechanisms required adjustments,
as Ansible 2.20 applies stricter evaluation rules for complex Jinja expressions
and no longer resolves certain relative include paths the way Ansible 2.18 did.
Key changes:
- Replaced legacy once_finalize.yml and once_flag.yml with the new structure
under tasks/utils/once/finalize.yml and tasks/utils/once/flag.yml.
- Updated all include_tasks statements to use 'path_join' with playbook_dir,
ensuring deterministic and absolute file resolution across roles.
- Fixed all network helper includes by converting direct relative paths such as
'roles/docker-compose/tasks/utils/network.yml' to proper Jinja-evaluated paths.
- Normalized MATOMO_* variable names for consistency with the updated variable
scope behavior in Ansible 2.20.
- Removed deprecated patterns that were implicitly supported in Ansible 2.18
but break under the more strict variable and path resolution model in 2.20.
These changes are part of the full migration step required to ensure the
infinito-nexus roles remain stable, deterministic, and forward-compatible with
Ansible 2.20.

Add end-to-end support for reserved usernames and tighten CAPTCHA / Keycloak logic.
Changes:
- Makefile: rename EXTRA_USERS → RESERVED_USERNAMES and pass it as --reserved-usernames to the users defaults generator.
- cli/build/defaults/users.py: propagate flag into generated users, add --reserved-usernames CLI option and mark listed accounts as reserved.
- Add reserved_users filter plugin with and helpers for Ansible templates and tasks.
- Add unit tests for reserved_users filters and the new reserved-usernames behaviour in the users defaults generator.
- group_vars/all/00_general.yml: harden RECAPTCHA_ENABLED / HCAPTCHA_ENABLED checks with default('') and explicit > 0 length checks.
- svc-db-openldap: introduce OPENLDAP_PROVISION_* flags, add OPENLDAP_PROVISION_RESERVED and OPERNLDAP_USERS to optionally exclude reserved users from provisioning.
- svc-db-openldap templates/tasks: switch role/group LDIF and user import loops to use OPERNLDAP_USERS instead of the full users dict.
- networks: assign dedicated subnet for web-app-roulette-wheel.
- web-app-keycloak vars: compute KEYCLOAK_RESERVED_USERNAMES_LIST and KEYCLOAK_RESERVED_USERNAMES_REGEX from users | reserved_usernames.
- web-app-keycloak user profile template: inject reserved-username regex into username validation pattern and improve error message, fix SSH public key attribute usage and add component name field.
- web-app-keycloak update/_update.yml: strip subComponents from component payloads before update and disable async/poll for easier debugging.
- web-app-keycloak tasks/main.yml: guard cleanup include with MODE_CLEANUP and keep reCAPTCHA update behind KEYCLOAK_RECAPTCHA_ENABLED.
- user/users defaults: mark system/service accounts (root, daemon, mail, admin, webmaster, etc.) as reserved so they cannot be chosen as login names.
- svc-prx-openresty vars: simplify OPENRESTY_CONTAINER lookup by dropping unused default parameter.
- sys-ctl-rpr-btrfs-balancer: simplify main.yml by removing the extra block wrapper.
- sys-daemon handlers: quote handler name for consistency.
Context: change set discussed and refined in ChatGPT on 2025-11-29 (Infinito.Nexus reserved usernames & Keycloak user profile flow). See conversation: https://chatgpt.com/share/692b21f5-5d98-800f-8e15-1ded49deddc9
Removed obsolete handlers from roles (VirtualBox, backup-to-USB, OpenLDAP)
and introduced an integration test under tests/integration/test_handlers_invoked.py
that ensures all handlers defined in roles/*/handlers are actually notified
somewhere in the code base. This keeps the repository clean by preventing
unused or forgotten handlers from accumulating.
Ref: https://chatgpt.com/share/68b6b28e-4388-800f-87d2-34dfb34b8d36
Integration tests added/updated:
- tests/integration/test_filters_usage.py: AST-based detection of filter definitions (FilterModule.filters), robust Jinja detection ({{ ... }}, {% ... %}, {% filter ... %}), plus Python call tracking; fails if a filter is used only under tests/.
- tests/integration/test_filters_are_defined.py: inverse check — every filter used in .yml/.yaml/.j2/.jinja2/.tmpl must be defined locally. Scans only inside Jinja blocks and ignores pipes inside strings (e.g., lookup('pipe', "... | grep ... | awk ...")) to avoid false positives like trusted_hosts, woff/woff2, etc.
Bug fixes & robustness:
- Build regexes without %-string formatting to avoid ValueError from literal '%' in Jinja tags.
- Strip quoted strings in usage analysis so sed/grep/awk pipes are not miscounted as filters.
- Prevent self-matches in the defining file.
Cleanup / removal of dead code:
- Removed unused filter plugins and related unit tests:
* filter_plugins/alias_domains_map.py
* filter_plugins/get_application_id.py
* filter_plugins/load_configuration.py
* filter_plugins/safe.py
* filter_plugins/safe_join.py
* roles/svc-db-openldap/filter_plugins/build_ldap_nested_group_entries.py
* roles/sys-ctl-bkp-docker-2-loc/filter_plugins/dict_to_cli_args.py
* corresponding tests under tests/unit/*
- roles/svc-db-postgres/filter_plugins/split_postgres_connections.py: dropped no-longer-needed list_postgres_roles API; adjusted tests.
Misc:
- sys-stk-front-proxy/defaults/main.yml: clarified valid vhost_flavour values (comma-separated).

- Converted group_vars/all/13_ldap.yml from lower-case to ALL-CAPS nested keys.
- Updated all roles, tasks, templates, and filter_plugins to reference LDAP.* instead of ldap.*.
- Fixed Keycloak JSON templates to properly quote Jinja variables.
- Adjusted svc-db-openldap filter plugins and unit tests to handle new LDAP structure.
- Updated integration test to only check uniqueness of TOP-LEVEL ALL-CAPS constants, ignoring nested keys.
