2dc9a563ef Allow modules to return facts.
If the module result contains "ansible_facts", that will be added to the setup
cache.

0c38bb2fd0 Add native facts to library/setup
This collects various facts from the host so that it isn't necessary to
have facter or ohai installed.  It gets various platform/distribution
facts, information about the type of hardware, whether a virtual
environment and what type, assorted interface facts, and ssh host public
keys.  Most facts are flat.  The two exceptions are 'processor' and all
interface facts.  Interface facts are presented as:
    ansible_lo : {
        "macaddress": "00:00:00:00:00:00",
        "ipv4": { "address": "127.0.0.1", "netmask": "255.0.0.0" },
        "ipv6": [
                    { "address": "::1", "prefix": "128", "scope": "host" }
                ]
    }

1d75a29ec9 Allow variables coming in from the playbook and the API to be expressed as dictionaries throughout their full life cycle
such that nested data can be made available in templates and playbooks.

e6406fa5a7 Allow variable expressions to be stored as variables themselves, do some things to allow setup strings
to more easily contain spaces without being mangled, which is neccessary because of the above.

8d57ceecf1 Factoids and push variables via setup are now available to be templated in command args
as well as template files.  PLUS, variables are now expressed in playbooks without having
to know about the setup task, which means playbooks are simpler to read now.

102385e4ad Added a setup module which can be used to place key-value JSON data
on the system for use in a later template module.   These values
could also be used for module-specific config.
