Ansible execution environment component

Build an Ansible execution environment and authenticate collection downloads from Red Hat Automation Hub without storing its offline token in the image.

Use Automation Hub authentication

1. Add ANSIBLE_GALAXY_SERVER_AUTOMATION_HUB_TOKEN as a masked GitLab CI/CD variable. Use your Red Hat Automation Hub offline token as its value. Mark the variable unprotected and available to all branches, tags and environments.

2. Include the component in .gitlab-ci.yml:

   include:
     - component: $CI_SERVER_FQDN/xrow-public/ci-tools/common@stable
     - component: $CI_SERVER_FQDN/xrow-public/ci-tools/ansible-ee@stable
       inputs:
         path: ansible-ee

3. Create a GitLab pipeline schedule for the default branch to refresh ANSIBLE_GALAXY_SERVER_AUTOMATION_HUB_TOKEN automatically.
