* YUM4/DNF compatibility via yum action plugin
DNF does not natively support allow_downgrade as an option, instead
that is always the default (not configurable by the administrator)
so it had to be implemented
- Fixed group actions in check mode to report correct changed state
- Better error handling for depsolve and transaction errors in DNF
- Fixed group action idempotent transactions
- Add use_backend to yum module/action plugin
- Fix dnf handling of autoremove (didn't used to work nor had a
default value specified, now does work and matches default
behavior of yum)
- Enable installroot tests for yum4(dnf) integration testing, dnf
backend now supports that
- Switch from zip to bc for certain package install/remove test
cases in yum integration tests. The dnf depsolver downgrades
python when you uninstall zip which alters the test environment
and we have no control over that.
- Add changelog fragment
- Return a pkg_mgr fact if it was not previously set.
* use tests instead of filters
* Don't check 'rc', use success/failed tests
- yum module use 'fail_json' which set 'failed'
- 'rc' is for backward compatibility:
bbd6b8bb42/lib/ansible/executor/task_executor.py (L571)
- besides yum module doesn't document any return values
* Allow to run tests twice in a row
ansible-test is executed with '--retry-on-error' switch, then tests must
be able to executed twice in a row.

* Add --installroot to YUM and DNF modules, issue #11310
This continues ansible-modules-core#1558, and
ansible-modules-core#1669
Allow specifying installroot for the yum and dnf modules
to install and remove packages in a location other than /.
* Remove empty aliases
* Simpler installroot set default logic
This change corrects problems reported by the `yamllint` linter.
Since key duplication problems were removed in 4d48711, this commit
mainly fixes trailing spaces and extra empty lines at beginning/end of
files.
