roles/common: Don't log brute force SSH attempts
This is nice to see that the throttling is working, but the logs are
completely full of this useless crap now.

roles/common: Rate limit SSH connections in firewalld
I think 5 connections per minute is more than enough. Any over this
and it will be logged to the systemd journal as a warning.

roles/common: Limit number of SSH authentication attempts
The default in later OpenSSH is 6, which seems too high. If you can't
get your password correct after 3 tries then I think you need help.

Eventually I'd like an easy way to enable blocking of repeated login
attempts at the firewall level. I think it's possible in firewalld.

roles/common: Use bionic tarsnap builds on Ubuntu 18.04
Tarsnap finally published builds for Ubuntu 18.04 "bionic" so we don't
need to use the 17.10 "artful" ones anymore.

roles/common: Always use security.ubuntu.com
Vanilla Ubuntu (and Debian actually) defaults to using the official
mirror for security updates rather than country or regional mirrors.

Also, for what it's worth, Ubuntu mirrors didn't always sync these
security archives. I'd prefer to stay closer to vanilla Ubuntu but
also it kinda makes sense to get security updates from the official
source than a mirror (in case of delay or errors).

There are no tarsnap packages for Ubuntu 18.04 "bionic" yet so we

Use Ansible's version_compare instead of doing math on strings
I'm surprised this worked all these years actually. Since Ansible
version 1.6 it has been possible to use the version_compare filter
instead of doing math logic on strings.

roles/common: Remove 128-bit Ciphers and MACs from sshd_config
I had removed them from Debian 8 and Ubuntu 14.04 configs last year
when the NSA's Suite B crypto guidelines dropped 128-bit algorithms
but those changes didn't make it to my new Ubuntu 16.04 config.

It is probably overkill and paranoid, but this server is mine, so I
can make those decisions (and I only connect from modern clients).

roles/common: Use httpredir.debian.org as default Debian mirror

Should be much better than any hardcoded default for most hosts.

roles/common: Add sysctl template for Debian hosts
Note: I've only tested this on a Debian container, and you can't
set these sysctls on containers (the host controls them). To make
matters worse, there is no fact to make ansible skip this on hosts
that are running in containers. For now I will just skip it on
hosts that are "virtualization" servers... even though we actually
do have KVM running on Debian on real hardware. *sigh*

roles/common: Specify default apt_mirror for fallback in sources.list template
New hosts often fail due to not having an apt_mirror, because there
isn't one defined for their group and their host_vars haven't over-
ridden it.

We want new hosts to deploy successfully, so let's just use a default
apt_mirror if there isn't one defined. Rather have a slow mirror than
a failed deployment. And in any case, Linode can download from KENET's
mirror at 10MB/sec. ;)
