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.

Development Utilities 👨‍💻

Description

This Ansible role provides a minimal development environment for software engineers on Arch Linux. It installs core tools and editors necessary to begin building, editing, and managing source code projects.

Learn more about development environments on Visual Studio Code, the Arch Wiki - Development Tools, and general Software Engineering on Wikipedia.

Overview

This role builds upon the system administration and package management roles to deliver a clean, editor-ready base for developers. It ensures that essential developer tooling is ready to go.

Purpose

To reduce setup time and ensure consistency across developer workstations, this role prepares a functional and extensible foundation for software engineering work.

Features

Installs Visual Studio Code: A powerful code editor with a wide plugin ecosystem.
Extensible Design: Acts as a base layer for more specific development stacks (e.g., web, Python, embedded).
Persona Integration: Extends the util-dev-admin for technical users with a development focus.
