os_release: Ansible Role

Grabs and parses the contents of /etc/os-release.

This file holds additional information that may not be provided by the setup module. For example, if we wanted to know whether or not a host has Manjaro installed, it is not easy to figure this out from the setup module. The setup module produces ansible_distribution=Archlinux while this role produces os_release.ID=manjaro.
