Sergei PetrosianandRichard Megginson d9ba105ef3 feat: Write roles fingerprints to /var/log/sysroles.jsonl [citest_skip]
Feature: Write roles fingerprints to /var/log/sysroles.jsonl [citest_skip]

Reason: By default logs are printed to rsyslog. This change adds a possibility to write logs to a file on the system for the downstream users.

Result: For the upstream, this makes rsyslog log message more detailed. For the downstream - also writes logs to /var/log/sysroles.jsonl

module: sr_fingerprint
short_description: Write role fingerprint data to syslog and optionally to a JSONL log file
description:
- Collects role fingerprint data into a canonical record and writes it to
syslog using Ansible C(module.log) as C(key=value) pairs.
- Optionally appends the same record as a JSON line to a log file
(one JSON object per line, JSONL format), by default
C(/var/log/sysroles.jsonl).
- Playbook variables are not available inside modules automatically. Roles
pass C(role_name), C(role_path), C(ansible_play_hosts_all),
C(distribution), and C(distribution_version) from the task.
- C(ansible_check_mode) is collected from the module execution context.
- Intended for role-internal or diagnostic use.
