Feat!: Install ansible tools from PyPI

Install ansible through system packages causes dependencies
conflicts on CentOS 8 platform therefore update packer
templates to use ansible provisioner created
through venv.

Error:
Problem: package ansible-5.4.0-3.el8.noarch requires
(ansible-core >= 2.12.2 with ansible-core < 2.13), but none
of the providers can be installed
