Fixes a case where the variable 'foo' may exist, but the with_items loop
was used on something like 'foo.results', where 'results' was not a valid
attribute of 'foo'. Prior to this patch, conditionals were not evaluated
until later, meaning there was no opportunity to allow a test to skip the
task or item based on it being undefined.
This fixes the case in which the delegated to host may not be in the
specified hosts list, in which cases facts/vars for the host were
not available in the injected hostvars.
This also fixes the inventory variable fetching function, so that an
unknown host raises a proper error as opposed to a NoneType exception.
Fixes#8224
Previously, the delegate_to value was stored in the module_vars of runner,
which could lead to bleeding that value across runs and incorrect hosts
being delegated to. This patch moves the value to a local variable in
the Runner class with some related refactoring of _compute_delegate() in
Runner (since the value is no longer required to be a parameter).
Fixes#8705
