Ansible previously added hosts to the host list multiple times for commands
like `ansible -i 'localhost,' -c local -m ping 'localhost,localhost'
--list-hosts`.
8d5f36a fixed the obvious error, but still added the un-deduplicated list to a
cache, so all future invocations of get_hosts() would retrieve a
non-deduplicated list.
This caused problems down the line: For some reason, Ansible only ever
schedules "flush_handlers" tasks (instead of scheduling any actual tasks from
the playbook) for hosts that are contained in the host lists multiple times.
This probably happens because the host states are stored in a dictionary
indexed by the hostnames, so duplicate hostname would cause the state to be
overwritten by subsequent invocations of … something.
