Something seems to have happened as of Ansible 2.4.0.0 where this no
longer works. I suspect it is related to the major changes to static
and dynamic imports that landed around this same time.
In practice this achieves the same function, but without the "magic"
ability to use one task for different operating systems.

We make sure that this tasks always runs by using the special tag of
the same name.
[ANSIBLE0006] systemctl used in place of systemd module
Also, move the functionality of the changed check to the systemd task,
because it has the ability to simply daemon-reload itself now.
Not sure what causes it but I get timeouts when connecting to my hosts
with Ansible > 2.4.0.0 (tested 2.4.1.0 and current 2.5.0-devel). For
some reason switching to paramiko fixes it.
I can't remember right now why I needed to use Debian's MariaDB build
but now I just want to use upstream's latest stable. Debian's version
is 10.1 and upstream has moved on to 10.2.
Ansible 2.4 changes the way includes work. Now you have to use "import"
for playbooks and tasks that are static, and "include" for those that
are dynamic (ie, those that use variables, loops, etc).

Using www-data was a temporary measure while I was waiting for the
official nginx.org packages to be released for Debian 9 and we had
to use Debian's own nginx package.
Sync with latest packaged version from Debian 9. Effectively this
only updates comments and disabled options, but having less changes
to look at during an apt upgrade is nice and reduces the chance of
adding errors.
There are currently no nginx.org builds for Debian 9, so we need to
use the package from Debian's repository. This package provides a
www-data user and group instead of an nginx one.
We can revert some of this after Debian 9 is released and official
builds come from nginx.org (though it might be useful to keep the
main nginx.conf as a template).
