Caveats:
* requiretty must be disabled in the sudoers config
* asking for a password doesn't work yet, so any sudoers users must
be configured with NOPASSWD
* if not starting the daemon as root, the user running the daemon
must have sudoers entries to allow them to run the command as the
target sudo_user
Still needs:
* chunked file transfer/receive
* should probably move all send/recv operations to separate
functions to reduce code duplication
* initial connection setup over ssh? or do we handle that in runner?

Addresses CVE-2013-4259: ansible uses a socket with predictable filename in /tmp
The 'always_run' task clause allows one to execute a task even in
check mode.
While here implement Runner.noop_on_check() to check if a runner
really should execute its task, with respect to check mode option
and 'always_run' clause.
Also add the optional 'jinja2' argument to check_conditional() :
it allows to give this function a jinja2 expression without exposing
the 'jinja2_compare' implementation mechanism.
For some reason, ssh seems to ask for password even when
PasswordAuthentication is set to no, adding PreferredAuthentications
with the 2 options removed do the trick.
Previously, hostvars would only expose a keys() list of hosts that had
been seen yet- however you could explicitly access the host if you knew
the name, and get the content that way. This precludes template code
from being able to safely access information about other hosts if any
limiters/tags were in use.
Additionally, the object was inconsistent for hostvars['myhost'] access
and [x[1] for x in hostvars.items() if x[0] == 'myhost'] access; this is
due to the original derivation from the dict object. .items() would be
handled by dict.items(), using the passed in setup_cache values without
using the actual lookup content.
This patch rebases the class implementation to a py2.6 dictmixin, fixing
those issues and restoring behaviour to match what the docs claim.
Due to various inconsistencies of ssh and sftp regarding ipv6 and
ipv4 handling, some special arguments must be passed, and the
ipv6 must be passed in a specific format.
