Rafael Guterres Jeffman 7126dec0f3 README-*: Bump minimum Ansible supported version to 2.15
ansible-freeipa roles do not work with Ansible 2.8 anymore, so the
minimum supported version is changed to 2.15, the oldest supported
Ansible version as of today.

This patch includes the change to the version number in the collection
and all plugin README files. The collection README was also update to
remove text that related only to previous Ansible versions.

Usage
=====
Example inventory file
```ini
[ipaserver]
ipaserver.test.local
```
Example playbook to make sure server "server.example.com" is already present in the topology:
```yaml
---
- name: Playbook to manage IPA server.
hosts: ipaserver
become: yes
tasks:
- ipaserver:
ipaadmin_password: SomeADMINpassword
name: server.example.com
```
This task is not deploying a new server, it is only checking if the server eists. It will therefore fail if the server does not exist.
Example playbook to make sure server "server.example.com" has location mylocation:
```yaml
---
- name: Playbook to manage IPA server.
hosts: ipaserver
become: yes
tasks:
- ipaserver:
ipaadmin_password: SomeADMINpassword
name: server.example.com
location: mylocation
```
Example playbook to make sure server "server.example.com" does not have a location:
```yaml
---
- name: Playbook to manage IPA server.
hosts: ipaserver
become: yes
tasks:
- ipaserver:
ipaadmin_password: SomeADMINpassword
name: server.example.com
location: ""
```
Example playbook to make sure server "server.example.com" has service weight 1:
```yaml
---
- name: Playbook to manage IPA server.
hosts: ipaserver
become: yes
tasks:
- ipaserver:
ipaadmin_password: SomeADMINpassword
name: server.example.com
service_weight: 1
```
Example playbook to make sure server "server.example.com" does not have a service weight:
```yaml
---
- name: Playbook to manage IPA server.
hosts: ipaserver
become: yes
tasks:
- ipaserver:
ipaadmin_password: SomeADMINpassword
name: server.example.com
service_weight: -1
```
Example playbook to make sure server "server.example.com" is hidden:
```yaml
---
- name: Playbook to manage IPA server.
hosts: ipaserver
become: yes
tasks:
- ipaserver:
ipaadmin_password: SomeADMINpassword
name: server.example.com
hidden: yes
```
Example playbook to make sure server "server.example.com" is not hidden:
```yaml
---
- name: Playbook to manage IPA server.
hosts: ipaserver
become: yes
tasks:
- ipaserver:
ipaadmin_password: SomeADMINpassword
name: server.example.com
hidden: no
```
Example playbook to make sure server "server.example.com" is absent from the topology:
```yaml
---
- name: Playbook to manage IPA server.
hosts: ipaserver
become: yes
tasks:
- ipaserver:
ipaadmin_password: SomeADMINpassword
name: server.example.com
state: absent
```
Example playbook to make sure server "server.example.com" is absent from the topology in continuous mode to ignore errors:
```yaml
---
- name: Playbook to manage IPA server.
hosts: ipaserver
become: yes
tasks:
- ipaserver:
ipaadmin_password: SomeADMINpassword
name: server.example.com
continue: yes
state: absent
```
Example playbook to make sure server "server.example.com" is absent from the topology with skipping the last of role check:
```yaml
---
- name: Playbook to manage IPA server.
hosts: ipaserver
become: yes
tasks:
- ipaserver:
ipaadmin_password: SomeADMINpassword
name: server.example.com
ignore_last_of_role: yes
state: absent
```
Example playbook to make sure server "server.example.com" is absent from the topology with skipping the topology disconnect check:
```yaml
---
- name: Playbook to manage IPA server.
hosts: ipaserver
become: yes
tasks:
- ipaserver:
ipaadmin_password: SomeADMINpassword
name: server.example.com
ignore_topology_disconnect: yes
state: absent
```
Example playbook to make sure server "server.example.com" is absent from the domain in force mode even if it does not exist:
```yaml
---
- name: Playbook to manage IPA server.
hosts: ipaserver
become: yes
tasks:
- ipaserver:
ipaadmin_password: SomeADMINpassword
name: server.example.com
force: yes
state: absent
```
This task will always report a change.
