Fixes#462 notice permission denied on authorized_key module
SUMMARY
As of right now the authorized_key module does not notice on an "absent" if a authorized_keys file is simply not readable to the executing user. I am trying to fix that
ISSUE TYPE
Bugfix Pull Request
COMPONENT NAME
authorized_key
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Execute as a user that does not have access to the root users authorized keys file
- name: Delete key from root user
ansible.posix.authorized_key:
state: absent
user: root
key: ssh-rsa xxxxxxxx
- name: Delete key from root user
become: true
ansible.posix.authorized_key:
state: absent
user: root
key: ssh-rsa xxxxxxxx
The one without become will succeed before my change and will fail with a permission denied error after my change. The 2nd task will actually remove a key from root user if become privileges are available for the executing user

Previously check_mode would incorrectly return changed=False even when a
change would have taken place if ran without check_mode, with
integration tests that confirmed this incorrect behavior. Also the
module did not correctly populate the return values when run in
check_mode. Both of these issues are resolved in this PR.
