We get a nice optimisation by using a filtered loop instead
of task skipping per service with 'when'.

By default, Ansible injects a variable for every fact, prefixed with
ansible_. This can result in a large number of variables for each host,
which at scale can incur a performance penalty. Ansible provides a
configuration option [0] that can be set to False to prevent this
injection of facts. In this case, facts should be referenced via
ansible_facts.<fact>.
This change updates all references to Ansible facts within Kolla Ansible
from using individual fact variables to using the items in the
ansible_facts dictionary. This allows users to disable fact variable
injection in their Ansible configuration, which may provide some
performance improvement.
This change disables fact variable injection in the ansible
configuration used in CI, to catch any attempts to use the injected
variables.

In services which use the Apache HTTP server to service HTTP requests,
there exists a TimeOut directive [1] which defaults to 60 seconds. APIs
which come under heavy load, such as Cinder, can sometimes exceed this
which results in a HTTP 504 Gateway timeout, or similar. However, the
request can still be serviced without error. For example, if Nova calls
the Cinder API to detach a volume, and this operation takes longer
than the shortest of the two timeouts, Nova will emit a stack trace
with a 504 Gateway timeout. At some time later, the request to detach
the volume will succeed. The Nova and Cinder DBs then become
out-of-sync with each other, and frequently DB surgery is required.
Although strictly this category of bugs should be fixed in OpenStack
services, it is not realistic to expect this to happen in the short
term. Therefore, this change makes it easier to set the Apache HTTP
timeout via a new variable.
An example of a related bug is here:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1888665
Whilst this timeout can currently be set by overriding the WSGI
config for individual services, this change makes it much easier.

When the internal VIP is moved in the event of a failure of the active
controller, OpenStack services can become unresponsive as they try to
talk with MariaDB using connections from the SQLAlchemy pool.
It has been argued that OpenStack doesn't really need to use connection
pooling with MariaDB [1]. This commit reduces the use of connection
pooling via two configuration options:
- max_pool_size is set to 1 to allow only a single connection in the
pool (it is not possible to disable connection pooling entirely via
oslo.db, and max_pool_size = 0 means unlimited pool size)
- lower connection_recycle_time from the default of one hour to 10
seconds, which means the single connection in the pool will be
recreated regularly
These settings have shown better reactivity of the system in the event
of a failover.

Including tasks has a performance penalty when compared with importing
tasks. If the include has a condition associated with it, then the
overhead of the include may be lower than the overhead of skipping all
imported tasks. In the case of the register.yml and bootstrap.yml
includes, all of the tasks in the included file use run_once: True.
The run_once flag improves performance at scale drastically, so
importing these tasks unconditionally will have a lower overhead than a
conditional include task. It therefore makes sense to switch to use
import_tasks there.
See [1] for benchmarks of run_once.

The goal for this push request is to normalize the construction and use
of internal, external, and admin URLs. While extending Kolla-ansible
to enable a more flexible method to manage external URLs, we noticed
that the same URL was constructed multiple times in different parts
of the code. This can make it difficult for people that want to work
with these URLs and create inconsistencies in a large code base with
time. Therefore, we are proposing here the use of
"single Kolla-ansible variable" per endpoint URL, which facilitates
for people that are interested in overriding/extending these URLs.
As an example, we extended Kolla-ansible to facilitate the "override"
of public (external) URLs with the following standard
"<component/serviceName>.<companyBaseUrl>".
Therefore, the "NAT/redirect" in the SSL termination system (HAproxy,
HTTPD or some other) is done via the service name, and not by the port.
This allows operators to easily and automatically create more friendly
URL names. To develop this feature, we first applied this patch that
we are sending now to the community. We did that to reduce the surface
of changes in Kolla-ansible.
Another example is the integration of Kolla-ansible and Consul, which
we also implemented internally, and also requires URLs changes.
Therefore, this PR is essential to reduce code duplicity, and to
facility users/developers to work/customize the services URLs.

Previously we mounted /etc/timezone if the kolla_base_distro is debian

correctness we should fix the condition to reference the host OS rather
than the container OS, since that is where the /etc/timezone file is
located.

The common role was previously added as a dependency to all other roles.
It would set a fact after running on a host to avoid running twice. This
had the nice effect that deploying any service would automatically pull
in the common services for that host. When using tags, any services with
matching tags would also run the common role. This could be both
surprising and sometimes useful.
When using Ansible at large scale, there is a penalty associated with
executing a task against a large number of hosts, even if it is skipped.
The common role introduces some overhead, just in determining that it
has already run.
This change extracts the common role into a separate play, and removes
the dependency on it from all other roles. New groups have been added
for cron, fluentd, and kolla-toolbox, similar to other services. This
changes the behaviour in the following ways:
* The common role is now run for all hosts at the beginning, rather than
prior to their first enabled service
* Hosts must be in the necessary group for each of the common services
in order to have that service deployed. This is mostly to avoid
deploying on localhost or the deployment host
* If tags are specified for another service e.g. nova, the common role
will *not* automatically run for matching hosts. The common tag must
be specified explicitly
The last of these is probably the largest behaviour change. While it
would be possible to determine which hosts should automatically run the
common role, it would be quite complex, and would introduce some
overhead that would probably negate the benefit of splitting out the
common role.

For the CentOS 7 to 8 transition, we will have a period where both
CentOS 7 and 8 images are available. We differentiate these images via a
tag - the CentOS 8 images will have a tag of train-centos8 (or
master-centos8 temporarily).
To achieve this, and maintain backwards compatibility for the
openstack_release variable, we introduce a new 'openstack_tag' variable.
This variable is based on openstack_release, but has a suffix of
'openstack_tag_suffix', which is empty except on CentOS 8 where it has a

(docker_registry; docker API 400 - invalid reference format)
workaround: use hostname/FQDN
RabbitMQ may fail to bind to IPv6 if hostname resolves also to IPv4.
This is due to old RabbitMQ versions available in images.
IPv4 is preferred by default and may fail in the IPv6-only scenario.
This should be no problem in real life as IPv6-only is indeed IPv6-only.
Also, when new RabbitMQ (3.7.16/3.8+) makes it into images, this will
no longer be relevant as we supply all the necessary config.
See: https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-server/pull/1982
For reliable runs, at least Ansible 2.8 is required (2.8.5 confirmed
to work well). Older Ansible versions are known to miss IPv6 addresses
in interface facts. This may affect redeploys, reconfigures and
upgrades which run after VIP address is assigned.
