The returned list of diffs aims to simulate how a file system diff would
look before and after writing the sources list files.

This mirrors a nearly identical change made to apt_repository.py.
Also removes the use of apt-get --force-yes as it can be dangerous
and should not be necessary (apt_repository.py does not use it).
Repeating the explanation from the apt_respository change below:
Since use_unsafe_shell is suspicious from a security point
of view (or it wouldn't be unsafe), the less we have, the less
code we have to thoroughly inspect for a security audit.
In this case, the '&&' can be replaced by doing 2 calls to run_command.
The old method left settings in the environment. The new method takes
care of clearing them after use. In this module, the old method was
also setting the environment too late to affect all the command line
tools which lead to a bug.

On systems with restrictive umasks, the pip module won't allow you to
install pip packages that are usable by everyone on the system. This
commit adds a umask option to optionally override the umask on a
per-package basis.
Since there is no shell escape of the password parameter, a password with
a single quote (or even worst, a single quote and a pipe) could have
unattended consequences. Also, the less we use use_unsafe_shell=True, the
better.

Without this change, some trouble may occur when "deb" parameter
is used as env vars controlling dpkg are not set. For example,
installing a package that requires user input will never end since
DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive is not set.
So export env vars in APT_ENV_VARS before run dpkg, like in cases
using apt-get/aptitude.
* This keeps us from hitting bugs in repoquery/yum plugins in certain
instances (#2559).
* The previous is also a small performance boost
* Also in is_installed(), when using the yum API, return if we detect
a package name has been installed. We don't need to also check
virtual provides in that case. This is another small performance
boost.
* Sort the list of packages returned by the list parameter.
If the requirements contains a repos url it will always report 'Successfully
installed'; there is no difference in the output to tell apart if
anything new was pulled. Use freeze to detect if the environment changed
in any way.
Should fixansible/ansible#1705
The yum module allows the 'name' parameter to be given as 'pkg', in
a similar way to some of the other package managers. This change
documents this alias.
The module's 'state' parameter has two other aliases, in line with
the 'apt' action; the 'state' parameter can take 'installed' as an
alias for 'present', and 'removed' as an alias for 'absent'. These
aliases are documented.
Closes#1189.
This will cause the settings in Ansible to override the system settings.
That will have no effect except on systems that have an out-of-Ansible
configuration that disables automatic installation of recommended
packages. Previously, ansible would use the OS default whenever
install_recommends wasn't part of the playbook. This change will cause
the Ansible default configuration setting of installing recommended
packages to override the configuration files set on the OS for things
installed through ansible, even when there is no install_recommends
specified in the playbook. Because the OS default matches the Ansible
default, this shouldn't have wide impact.
