We make almost no use of the dynamic properties of the hcloud inventory,
so we can simplify this by declaring all cloud servers in the main hosts
inventory.

The main benefit of this change is that temporary and experimental cloud
servers are not automatically included in the Ansible playbooks. In such
cases it is usually incorrect to deploy changes to these unknown servers.

A smaller side benefit is that Ansible will now use hostnames to connect
to cloud servers, whereas the dynamic inventory provided IPv4 addresses.
This results in more meaningful ~/.ssh/known_hosts entries.

The idea bebind this is to be able to give vault access to new DevOps
members without giving away more important credentials like Hetzner's.

The default sslmode is require which doesn't protect against MITM
attacks (the certificate isn't verified). The different modes are
explained here [1].

Main motivation behind this is preparing for doing more automatic
upgrades. The need for ignoring kernel updates isn't clear either.

Now that misc/get_key.py checks if the vault file passed to it exists,
we cannot pass paths only resolvable from the root directory. Instead,
use paths that make sense relative to the current directory and avoid
calling chdir when loading the vault file.

Fixes: 77542146 ("Rewrite get_key.py to use click instead of typer")

Typer doesn't work with Click 8[1].

Issuing a certificate requires nginx to be running, but nginx requires a

The WKD webservice ran on orion, but as we want to retire it, we will
move it to it's own CX11 VPS. As it's just a simple web page.

The PIA boxes are retired.

Introduce a new monitoring server with prometheus and alertmanager for

This is now built enitrely in GitLab CI in the arch-boxes repo so this is no longer required.

Prefer using our maintained version of checkservices from the contrib

getting rid of a submodule which isn't cloned by default.

Some playbooks that use jmespath query like the matrix playbook while
getting changes for the "install irc-bridge registration" require the
python-jmespath package on client side to work, document this.

This reverts commit 8e4eac7d.

Revert this feature as its part of a keycloak change that must go
through review via a merge request.
