Kevin Veen-Birkenbach 716ebef33b Refactor task includes and update variable handling for Ansible 2.20 migration

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.

Fakeroot

Description

This Ansible role installs fakeroot on Arch Linux systems using the Pacman package manager. Fakeroot enables non-privileged users to simulate root-level file manipulations—ideal for building packages or performing file operations that normally require root permissions.

Learn more about fakeroot on Wikipedia and check out its details on the Arch Linux Package Repository.

Purpose

The purpose of this role is to automate the installation of fakeroot so that users can simulate superuser operations without requiring elevated privileges. This is particularly useful in development environments and during package building processes.

Features

Automated Installation: Uses Pacman to install fakeroot.
Idempotent Execution: Ensures that fakeroot is installed and remains up to date.
Simplified Setup: Minimizes manual installation steps for environments where fakeroot is required.
