Slavi Pantaleev 1cd251ed78 Don't delete Docker images which may have been pulled by another
Some people run Coturn or Jitsi, etc., by themselves and disable it
in the playbook.

Because the playbook is trying to be nice and clean up after itself,
it was deleting these Docker images.

However, people wish to pull and use them separately and would rather
they don't get deleted.

We could make this configurable for the sake of this special case, but
it's simpler to just avoid deleting these images.
It's not like this "cleaning things up" thing works anyway.
As time goes on, the playbook gets updated with newer image tags
and we leave so many images behind. If one doesn't run
`docker system prune -a` manually once in a while, they'd get swamped
with images anyway. Whether we leave a few images behind due to the lack
of this cleanup now is pretty much irrelevant.

Slavi Pantaleev e1690722f7 Replace cronjobs with systemd timers
Fixes https://github.com/spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy/issues/756

Related to https://github.com/spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy/issues/737

I feel like timers are somewhat more complicated and dirty (compared to
cronjobs), but they come with these benefits:

- log output goes to journald
- on newer systemd distros, you can see when the timer fired, when it
will fire, etc.
- we don't need to rely on cron (reducing our dependencies to just
systemd + Docker)

Cronjobs work well, but it's one more dependency that needs to be
installed. We were even asking people to install it manually
(in `docs/prerequisites.md`), which could have gone unnoticed.

Once in a while someone says "my SSL certificates didn't renew"
and it's likely because they forgot to install a cron daemon.

Switching to systemd timers means that installation is simpler
and more unified.

Slavi Pantaleev 05ca9357a8 Add .service suffix to systemd units list
We'll be adding `.timer` units later on, so it's good to be
more explicit.

Slavi Pantaleev 5eed874199 Improve self-building experience (avoid conflict with pullable images)
Fixes https://github.com/spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy/issues/716

This patch makes us use more fully-qualified container image names
(either prefixed with docker.io/ or with localhost/).

The latter happens when self-building is enabled.

We've recently had issues where if an image was removed manually
and the service was restarted (making `docker run` fetch it from Docker Hub, etc.),
we'd end up with a pulled image, even though we're aiming for a self-built one.
Re-running the playbook would then not do a rebuild, because:
- the image with that name already exists (even though it's something
else)
- we sometimes had conditional logic where we'd build only if the git
repo changed

By explicitly changing the name of the images (prefixing with localhost/),
we avoid such confusion and the possibility that we'd automatically pul something
which is not what we expect.

Also, I've removed that condition where building would happen on git
changes only. We now always build (unless an image with that name
already exists). We just force-build when the git repo changes.

Slavi Pantaleev 2a1ec38e3a Stop using Ansible's cron module
This is mainly to address SSL renewal not working for us due to:
- https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/71213
- https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/71207

Using the cron module was hacky anyway. We shouldn't need an extra
level of buggy abstraction to manage a cronjob file.

Slavi Pantaleev 7d3adc4512 Automatically force-pull :latest images
We do use some `:latest` images by default for the following services:
- matrix-dimension
- Goofys (in the matrix-synapse role)
- matrix-bridge-appservice-irc
- matrix-bridge-appservice-discord
- matrix-bridge-mautrix-facebook
- matrix-bridge-mautrix-whatsapp

It's terribly unfortunate that those software projects don't release
anything other than `:latest`, but that's how it is for now.

Updating that software requires that users manually do `docker pull`
on the server. The playbook didn't force-repull images that it already
had.

With this patch, it starts doing so. Any image tagged `:latest` will be
force re-pulled by the playbook every time it's executed.

It should be noted that even though we ask the `docker_image` module to
force-pull, it only reports "changed" when it actually pulls something
new. This is nice, because it lets people know exactly when something
gets updated, as opposed to giving the indication that it's always
updating the images (even though it isn't).

Slavi Pantaleev af1c9ae59d Do not force firewalld on people
In most cases, there's not really a need to touch the system
firewall, as Docker manages iptables by itself
(see https://docs.docker.com/network/iptables/).

All ports exposed by Docker containers are automatically whitelisted
in iptables and wired to the correct container.

This made installing firewalld and whitelisting ports pointless,
as far as this playbook's services are concerned.

People that wish to install firewalld (for other reasons), can do so
manually from now on.

This is inspired by and fixes #97 (Github Issue).

Slavi Pantaleev 24cf27c60c Isolate Coturn from services in the default Docker network
Most (all?) of our Matrix services are running in the `matrix` network,
so they were safe -- not accessible from Coturn to begin with.

Isolating Coturn into its own network is a security improvement
for people who were starting other services in the default
Docker network. Those services were potentially reachable over the
private Docker network from Coturn.

Slavi Pantaleev c6858d2a08 Define matrix_coturn_turn_external_ip_address in the playbook group vars
This is more explicit than hiding it in the role defaults.

People who reuse the roles in their own playbook (and not only) may
incorrectly define `ansible_host` to be a hostname or some local address.

Making it more explicit is more likely to prevent such mistakes.

Slavi Pantaleev c10182e5a6 Make roles more independent of one another
With this change, the following roles are now only dependent
on the minimal `matrix-base` role:
- `matrix-corporal`
- `matrix-coturn`
- `matrix-mailer`
- `matrix-mxisd`
- `matrix-postgres`
- `matrix-riot-web`
- `matrix-synapse`

The `matrix-nginx-proxy` role still does too much and remains
dependent on the others.

Wiring up the various (now-independent) roles happens
via a glue variables file (`group_vars/matrix-servers`).
It's triggered for all hosts in the `matrix-servers` group.

According to Ansible's rules of priority, we have the following
chain of inclusion/overriding now:
- role defaults (mostly empty or good for independent usage)
- playbook glue variables (`group_vars/matrix-servers`)
- inventory host variables (`inventory/host_vars/matrix.<your-domain>`)

All roles default to enabling their main component
(e.g. `matrix_mxisd_enabled: true`, `matrix_riot_web_enabled: true`).
Reasoning: if a role is included in a playbook (especially separately,
in another playbook), it should "work" by default.

Our playbook disables some of those if they are not generally useful
(e.g. `matrix_corporal_enabled: false`).

Slavi Pantaleev 51312b8250 Split playbook into multiple roles
As suggested in #63 (Github issue), splitting the
playbook's logic into multiple roles will be beneficial for
maintainability.

This patch realizes this split. Still, some components
affect others, so the roles are not really independent of one
another. For example:
- disabling mxisd (`matrix_mxisd_enabled: false`), causes Synapse
and riot-web to reconfigure themselves with other (public)
Identity servers.

- enabling matrix-corporal (`matrix_corporal_enabled: true`) affects
how reverse-proxying (by `matrix-nginx-proxy`) is done, in order to
put matrix-corporal's gateway server in front of Synapse

We may be able to move away from such dependencies in the future,
at the expense of a more complicated manual configuration, but
it's probably not worth sacrificing the convenience we have now.

As part of this work, the way we do "start components" has been
redone now to use a loop, as suggested in #65 (Github issue).
This should make restarting faster and more reliable.
