branic.system_management 1.2.0

Release Summary

Extends install_cloud_clis with OCM and Google Workspace CLIs, hardens ROSA
installs against mirror lag, and isolates per-CLI failures.

Minor Changes

• install_cloud_clis role - add Google Workspace CLI (gws) installation from GitHub releases
• install_cloud_clis role - add OCM CLI (openshift-online/ocm-cli) installation support with bash completion
• install_cloud_clis role - isolate each CLI install in block/rescue so one component failure does not block remaining installs
• install_cloud_clis role - loop CLI installs from install_cloud_clis_cli_installers to reduce duplicated task definitions in main.yml

Bugfixes

• install_cloud_clis role - resolve ROSA CLI install version from mirror.openshift.com availability so a GitHub release ahead of the mirror does not fail the play
