ipaserver: New parameter ipaserver_install_packages_only

The bool value defines if the deployment will continue after the needed packages are installed on the node.

This is useful if images are generated with the packages installed to speed up deployment.

Fixes: #1086 (Proposal: Add 'installation_only' flag to roles)

Changes for ipareplica and ipaclient roles need to be done still.

The bool value defines if the deployment will continue after the needed
packages are installed on the node.

This is useful if images are generated with the packages installed to speed
up deployment.

Fixes: freeipa#1086 (Proposal: Add 'installation_only' flag to roles)

Are the changes only needed for ipaserver?

Variable | Description | Required
-------- | ----------- | --------
`ipaserver_install_packages` | The bool value defines if the needed packages are installed on the node. (bool, default: true) | no
`ipaserver_install_packages_only` | The bool value defines if the deployment will continue after the needed packages are installed on the node. (bool, default: true) | no

ipaserver/defaults/main.yml has ipaserver_install_packages_only: false, shouldn't the default be false?

Also, I think the value should be true if only the packages should be installed, so, in my opinion, description should be something like "When set to true, required packages will be installed, but server will not be configured. (bool, default: false)"
