Refactor Ansible playbooks to comply with best practices and fix linting violations

- Implement 4-role architecture (base_provision, patching, hardening, decommission)
- Extract hardcoded values to role defaults and group_vars
- Add Ansible Vault integration for secrets management
- Implement proper handlers for service restarts instead of direct tasks
- Add Molecule testing framework with Docker driver
- Configure ansible-lint with production profile settings

Fix all 125+ ansible-lint violations:
- Add FQCN (Fully Qualified Collection Names) to all modules
- Replace yes/no with true/false for boolean values
- Add explicit mode parameters to file/template operations
- Remove duplicate post_tasks blocks from playbooks
- Add newlines at end of all YAML files
- Fix key ordering in tasks (name, when, block)
- Convert service restarts to handlers with notify
- Remove ignore_errors in favor of failed_when/changed_when
- Fix line length violations and empty lines
- Add noqa comments for unavoidable risky-file-permissions

Update documentation:
- Add REFACTORING.md with implementation details
- Add VAULT_GUIDE.md for secrets management
- Add per-role README.md files
- Update existing documentation

All playbooks now pass ansible-lint production profile with 0 violations.

+
+## Best Practices Implemented
+
+### ✅ Idempotencja
+- All tasks use `changed_when` and `failed_when` for proper state detection
+- Command modules replaced with native Ansible modules where possible
+- Shell tasks include `changed_when: false` when appropriate
+
+### ✅ Role + Struktura
+- Clean role separation: `base_provision`, `patching`, `hardening`, `decommission`
+- Each role has: `tasks/`, `handlers/`, `defaults/`, `templates/`, `README.md`
+- Proper namespacing prevents variable conflicts
+
+### ✅ Brak Hardcodu
+- All variables in `defaults/main.yml` or `group_vars/`
+- No hardcoded values in playbooks
+- Configurable through `group_vars` for different environments
+
+### ✅ Handlers zamiast Restartów
+- SSH restart via handler (triggered only on config change)
+- fail2ban restart via handler
+- Services not restarted unnecessarily
+
+### ✅ Vault do Sekretów
+- Secrets go in `group_vars/vault.yml` (encrypted with Ansible Vault)
+- Admin passwords not in plaintext
+- Database credentials managed via Vault
+
+### ✅ ansible-lint
+- `.ansible-lint` configuration included
+- Rules configured for project standards
+- Run: `ansible-lint playbooks/ roles/`
+
+### ✅ Molecule
+- Docker-based testing in `molecule/default/`
+- Test convergence and verification
+- Run: `molecule test`
+

+# Vault Configuration Guide
+
+## Overview
+
+This project uses Ansible Vault to securely manage sensitive data such as passwords, API keys, and credentials.
+
+## Setup
+
+### 1. Create Vault Password File
+
+```bash
+# Generate a secure password
+openssl rand -base64 32 > ~/.vault_pass.txt
+
+# Secure the file
+chmod 600 ~/.vault_pass.txt
+```
+
+### 2. Add to .bashrc or .zshrc
+
+```bash
+export ANSIBLE_VAULT_PASSWORD_FILE="$HOME/.vault_pass.txt"
+```
+
+### 3. Configure ansible.cfg
+
+```ini
+[defaults]
+vault_password_file = ~/.vault_pass.txt
+```
+
+## Vault Files
+
+### group_vars/vault.yml
+
+This file contains all encrypted secrets:
+
+```yaml
+---
+# Vault variables for sensitive data
+vault_admin_password: "<secure_password>"
+vault_db_password: "<db_password>"
+vault_grafana_password: "<grafana_password>"
+vault_ssh_key_passphrase: "<ssh_passphrase>"
+```
+
+## Encrypting Secrets
+
+### First Time - Encrypt vault.yml
+
+```bash
+# Edit the file first with plain text secrets
+ansible-vault encrypt group_vars/vault.yml
+
+# You'll be prompted for vault password
+# Then the file will be automatically encrypted
+```
+
+### Edit Encrypted Vault
+
+```bash
+# Edit the vault file (will decrypt, open editor, re-encrypt)
+ansible-vault edit group_vars/vault.yml
+
+# Or view without editing
+ansible-vault view group_vars/vault.yml
+```
+
+### Encrypt New Files
+
+```bash
+ansible-vault encrypt group_vars/new_secrets.yml
+```
+
+## Using Vault in Playbooks
+
+### Import Vault Variables
+
+```yaml
+---
+- name: My Playbook
+  hosts: all
+  vars_files:
+    - vars/vault.yml
+
+  tasks:
+    - name: Use vault password
+      user:
+        name: admin
+        password: "{{ vault_admin_password | password_hash('sha512') }}"
+```
+
+## Running Playbooks with Vault
+
+### Method 1: Using .vault_pass.txt
+
+```bash
+export ANSIBLE_VAULT_PASSWORD_FILE="$HOME/.vault_pass.txt"
+ansible-playbook playbooks/provision.yml -i inventory/hosts.ini
+```
+
+### Method 2: Inline Flag
+
+```bash
+ansible-playbook playbooks/provision.yml \
+  --vault-password-file ~/.vault_pass.txt \
+  -i inventory/hosts.ini
+```
+
+### Method 3: Prompt for Password
+
+```bash
+ansible-playbook playbooks/provision.yml \
+  --ask-vault-pass \
+  -i inventory/hosts.ini
+
+# You'll be prompted to enter vault password
+```
+
+## Viewing Vault Contents
+
+```bash
+# View encrypted file
+ansible-vault view group_vars/vault.yml
+
+# View specific variable
+ansible-playbook playbooks/provision.yml \
+  --tags never \
+  -e "ansible_connection=local" \
+  -i localhost, \
+  -m debug \
+  -a "var=vault_admin_password"
+```
+
+## Vault Best Practices
+
+### ✅ DO
+
+- Store all passwords in vault.yml
+- Use strong vault passwords (32+ characters)
+- Keep vault password file secure (chmod 600)
+- Rotate vault passwords periodically
+- Version control only encrypted files
+- Document what each variable contains
+
+### ❌ DON'T
+
+- Commit unencrypted vault.yml to git
+- Share vault password file
+- Hardcode secrets in playbooks
+- Use weak passwords
+- Check plaintext secrets into version control
+
+## Rekeying Vault
+
+To change the vault password:
+
+```bash
+ansible-vault rekey group_vars/vault.yml
+
+# You'll be prompted for:
+# 1. Current vault password
+# 2. New vault password
+# 3. Confirm new vault password
+```
+
+## CI/CD Integration
+
+For CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, etc.):
+
+### GitHub Actions Example
+
+```yaml
+- name: Run Ansible Playbook
+  env:
+    ANSIBLE_VAULT_PASSWORD: ${{ secrets.ANSIBLE_VAULT_PASSWORD }}
+  run: |
+    echo "$ANSIBLE_VAULT_PASSWORD" > ~/.vault_pass.txt
+    ansible-playbook playbooks/provision.yml
+```
+
+### GitLab CI Example
+
+```yaml
+deploy:
+  script:
+    - echo "$ANSIBLE_VAULT_PASSWORD" > ~/.vault_pass.txt
+    - ansible-playbook playbooks/provision.yml
+  secrets:
+    - ANSIBLE_VAULT_PASSWORD
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### "Decryption failed"
+
+- Wrong vault password
+- File is corrupted
+- Check file permissions
+
+```bash
+# Check if file is encrypted
+file group_vars/vault.yml
+
+# Should show: ASCII text, with very long lines
+```
+
+### "vault password not found"
+
+- ANSIBLE_VAULT_PASSWORD_FILE not set
+- Path is incorrect
+- File permissions wrong (needs 600)
+
+### "Secrets leaked"
+
+If secrets are accidentally committed:
+
+```bash
+# Remove from git history
+git filter-branch --force --index-filter \
+  'git rm --cached --ignore-unmatch group_vars/vault.yml' \
+  --prune-empty --tag-name-filter cat -- --all
+
+# Force push (careful!)
+git push origin --force --all
+```

+# Base Provision Role
+
+Provision basic infrastructure on enterprise nodes with security hardening.
+
+## Features
+
+- **Idempotent**: All tasks use proper idempotency markers (`changed_when`, `failed_when`)
+- **Handlers**: SSH and fail2ban restarts use handlers instead of direct service calls
+- **Variables**: All configuration in `defaults/main.yml` - no hardcoding
+- **Validation**: Pre-flight checks for system requirements
+- **Firewall**: UFW firewall configuration with configurable rules
+- **SSH Security**: Root login disabled, password auth disabled, key-based auth only
+
+## Role Variables
+
+See `defaults/main.yml` for all available variables.
+
+### Key Variables
+
+- `node_timezone`: System timezone (default: UTC)
+- `admin_user`: Admin username for infrastructure access
+- `ssh_port`: SSH service port (default: 22)
+- `base_packages`: List of base packages to install
+- `firewall_enabled`: Enable UFW firewall (default: true)
+- `firewall_allowed_tcp_ports`: Allowed TCP ports for firewall
+
+## Vault Variables
+
+Admin password should be stored in encrypted vault:
+
+```yaml
+# vars/vault.yml (encrypted)
+admin_password: "{{ vault_admin_password }}"
+```
+
+## Usage
+
+```yaml
+- role: base_provision
+  vars:
+    node_timezone: "Europe/Warsaw"
+    firewall_enabled: true
+```
+
+## Handlers
+
+- `restart sshd`: Restarts SSH service (triggered by config changes)
+- `restart fail2ban`: Restarts fail2ban service (triggered by config changes)
+
+## Tags
+
+- `provision`: All provisioning tasks
+- `base`: Base provision role tasks

+# Decommission Role
+
+Gracefully decommission enterprise infrastructure nodes with comprehensive backup and cleanup.
+
+## Features
+
+- **Confirmation Prompt**: Interactive confirmation before decommissioning
+- **Graceful Shutdown**: Stop services gracefully with connection drain time
+- **Comprehensive Backup**: Archive configurations and data before cleanup
+- **Selective Cleanup**: Only remove items that were deployed
+- **Logging**: Detailed decommissioning logs for audit trail
+- **Notifications**: Optional email notifications on completion
+
+## Role Variables
+
+See `defaults/main.yml` for all available variables.
+
+### Key Variables
+
+- `backup_data`: Backup application data (default: true)
+- `export_config`: Export system configuration (default: true)
+- `graceful_shutdown`: Graceful service shutdown (default: true)
+- `auto_shutdown`: Auto shutdown after decommissioning (default: false)
+- `application_services`: Services to stop
+- `application_packages`: Packages to remove
+- `decommission_notification_email`: Email for notifications (optional)
+
+## Usage
+
+```yaml
+- role: decommission
+  vars:
+    backup_data: true
+    export_config: true
+    auto_shutdown: false
+    decommission_notification_email: "ops@company.com"
+```
+
+## Backup Locations
+
+- Configuration: `/var/backups/decommission-<timestamp>/config/`
+- Data: `/var/backups/decommission-<timestamp>/data/`
+- Report: `/var/log/decommission_report_<timestamp>.log`
+
+## Supported Groups
+
+- `webservers`: Backs up /var/www/html
+- `databases`: Backs up PostgreSQL data
+- `monitoring`: Backs up Prometheus data
+- `loadbalancers`: Loadbalancer cleanup
+
+## Safety Features
+
+- Interactive confirmation before execution
+- Connection drain time before shutdown (30 seconds)
+- Errors are logged but don't stop the process
+- Comprehensive audit log

+# Patching Role
+
+Apply security patches and OS updates to enterprise infrastructure nodes.
+
+## Features
+
+- **Idempotent**: Properly checks for changes with `changed_when`
+- **Patch Window**: Optional enforcement of patch time windows
+- **Pre-patch Backup**: Backs up package list before patching
+- **Smart Reboot**: Automatically detects if reboot is required
+- **Service Restart**: Restarts only necessary services after patching
+- **Health Checks**: Verifies services and runs health endpoint checks
+
+## Role Variables
+
+See `defaults/main.yml` for all available variables.
+
+### Key Variables
+
+- `patch_window_start`: Patch window start time (default: 02:00)
+- `patch_window_end`: Patch window end time (default: 04:00)
+- `enforce_patch_window`: Enforce patch time window (default: true)
+- `patch_security_only`: Apply security updates only (default: true)
+- `backup_before_patch`: Create backup before patching (default: true)
+- `reboot_if_required`: Auto-reboot if required (default: false)
+- `services_to_restart`: Services to restart after patching
+- `critical_services`: Critical services to verify after patching
+
+## Usage
+
+```yaml
+- role: patching
+  vars:
+    patch_security_only: true
+    enforce_patch_window: false
+    reboot_if_required: true
+```
+
+## Report
+
+Patch report is generated at: `/var/log/patch_report_<timestamp>.log`
+
+## Backup Location
+
+Pre-patch backups saved to: `/var/backups/pre-patch-<timestamp>/`
