[1] The commands argument will now accept a dict argument that can
specifiy the output format of the command. To specify a dict argument
use the form of { command: <str>, output: <str>, prompt: <str>,
response: <str> }. Command and output are required arguments. Output
accepts valid values text and json.
* add src argument to provide path to config file
* add new choice to match used to ignore current running config
* add update argument with choices merge or check
* add backup argument to backup current running config to control host
* add defaults argument to control collection of config with or without defaults
* add save argument to save current running config to startup config
* add state argument to control state of config file
* deprecated force argument, use match=none instead
This update adds exception handling to catch errors when trying to parse
command output to json. It also removes the dependency on importing json
opting to use the AnsibleModule methods instead
