Rafael Guterres Jeffman e4d2b62bdb ipaautomountlocation: Allow execution of plugin in client host.
Update automountlocation README file and add tests for executing plugin
with `ipaapi_context` set to `client`.

A new test playbook can be found at:

    tests/automountlocation/test_automountlocation_client_context.yml

The new test file can be executed in a FreeIPA client host that is
not a server. In this case, it should be defined in the `ipaclients`
group, in the inventory file.
