Fix provisioner to install Git 2 from IUS

While patch Ibace4cdf89d0615a2e5117f9ea3ca50730d5c93d fixed the setup
for the IUS repo. It failed to ensure that Git 2 is installed from the
IUS repo.

In the refactored IUS repo git2u no longer exists and instead the
latest Git package appears to be git224 so let's update to that
version.

Also class cast ansible_distribution_major_version|int as this variable
normally returns a type AnsibleUnsafeText which cannot be compared to
an int type.

+    Fix failure to install Git 2 from the IUS repo. While the patch
+    https://gerrit.linuxfoundation.org/infra/c/releng/common-packer/+/62244
+    sets up the IUS repo, it fails to replace git with git from the IUS repo
+    due to the selected package git2u being non-existant in the repo.
+    This update instead installs git224 from the IUS repo.
