This mirrors a nearly identical change made to apt_repository.py.
Also removes the use of apt-get --force-yes as it can be dangerous
and should not be necessary (apt_repository.py does not use it).
Repeating the explanation from the apt_respository change below:
Since use_unsafe_shell is suspicious from a security point
of view (or it wouldn't be unsafe), the less we have, the less
code we have to thoroughly inspect for a security audit.
In this case, the '&&' can be replaced by doing 2 calls to run_command.
Using the difflist feature added in ansible/ansible@c337293 we can add
two diffs to the `diff` dict returned as JSON: A `before` and `after` pair of
changed file contents and the diff of the file attributes.
n.b.: the difflist handling from the above commit is logically broken.
PR will follow.

Since there is no shell escape of the password parameter, a password with
a single quote (or even worst, a single quote and a pipe) could have
unattended consequences. Also, the less we use use_unsafe_shell=True, the
better.
As of Ansible 2.x, invocation of Django's ```manage.py``` requires a valid "shebang". Additionally, ```manage.py``` must be executable.
The old invocation was hardcoded as ```python manage.py ...``` while the new invocation is ```./manage.py ...```. See [this PR](https://github.com/ansible/ansible-modules-core/pull/1165).
This change allows more flexibility for which Python interpreter is invoked, but breaks existing deployment when ```manage.py``` is not properly configured. This documentation update adds a note explaining the new requirements for ```manage.py```.
