• the role still supports ansible 2.9

• Add CHANGELOG.md

Description: When a new changelog section is added to CHANGELOG.md and pushed, changelog_to_tag.yml is triggered, which generates a new tag and a new release.

New Features

• Make drop-in config file functionality configurable by user

This PR simplifies the logic behind the drop-in config files and also allows the user to use drop-in configs even if the distribution does not support it out of the box.

Bug Fixes

• Allow user to override variables

A previous commit hardcoded many variables to the values under vars/, making it impossible for the user to parameterize things like the systemd service name. The assumption was that the _sshd* variables were useless in an effort to blindly adhere to best practices, but they were crucial in allowing flexibility to the user.
