Allow variables to be passed in to template lookup plugin (#18662)

Browse Source 
This allows a single template to be evaluated with different values in
the same task. For example, with a template like 'x:{{a}}', one could do
something like this:

    - foo:
        a: "{{ lookup('template', 'x.j2', template_vars=dict(a=foo[item])) }}"
        b: "{{ lookup('template', 'x.j2', template_vars=dict(a=bar[item])) }}"
      with_items:
        - x
        - y

…and "a" and "b" would expand to different strings based on what we
passed in to the template lookup.
