- Improved get_service_name filter plugin (clearer suffix handling, consistent var names).
- Added MODE_ASSERT flag to optionally execute validation/assertion tasks.
- Fixed systemd unit handling: consistent use of %I instead of %i, correct escaping of instance names.
- Unified on_failure behavior and alarm composer scripts.
- Cleaned up redundant logging, handlers, and debug config.
- Strengthened sys-service template resolution with assert (only active when MODE_ASSERT).
- Simplified timer and suffix handling with get_service_name filter.
- Hardened sensitive tasks with no_log.
- Added conditional asserts across roles (Keycloak, DNS, Mailu, Discourse, etc.).
These changes improve consistency, safety, and validation across the automation stack.

This commit restructures systemctl service definitions and category mappings.
Motivation: Alarm-related bugs revealed inconsistencies in service and role handling.
Preparation step: lays the groundwork for fixing the alarm issues by aligning categories, roles, and service templates.
- Enabled central_database in Mailu config
- Improved API token creation task:
* use curl -f to fail on HTTP errors
* added explicit failed_when and changed_when conditions
- Adjusted docker-compose template spacing for readability
- Made logging level configurable (DEBUG when MODE_DEBUG is set)
- Added new documentation Move_Domain.md explaining safe procedure for migrating mailboxes to a new domain
- replaced CERTBOT_DNS_API_TOKEN with CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN everywhere
- introduced generic sys-dns-cloudflare-records role for managing DNS records
- added sys-dns-hetzner-rdns role with both Cloud (hcloud) and Robot API flavors
- updated Mailu role to:
- generate DKIM before DNS setup
- delegate DNS + rDNS records to the new generic roles
- removed legacy per-role Cloudflare vars (MAILU_CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN)
- extended group vars with HOSTING_PROVIDER for rDNS flavor decision
- added hetzner.hcloud collection to requirements
This consolidates DNS management into reusable roles,
supports both Cloudflare and Hetzner providers,
and standardizes variable naming across the project.
- Standardize async/poll usage with 'ASYNC_ENABLED | bool'
- Add async/poll parameters to Cloudflare, Nginx, Mailu, MIG, Nextcloud, and OpenLDAP tasks
- Update async configuration in 'group_vars/all/00_general.yml' to ensure boolean evaluation
- Allow CAA, cache, and DNS tasks to run asynchronously when enabled
