Ansible Role set and check CI facts

sets and checks facts from environment variables or from terraform state on control host

Dependencies

The role depends on terraform and a backend configuration for terraform including the credentials (possibly set by environment variables) in the folder the playbook is executed (not the folder of the playbook).

The role uses community.general.json_query.
