[Pulp-list] using ansible to install azure backend

[Mike DePaulo]

Hi Sheldon,

FYI: A better solution in the meantime is to run the installer with the
following variable set:
prereq_pip_packages:
  - Jinja2
  - django-storages[azure]

The current installer docs incorrectly document prereq_pip_packages, so I
just submitted a PR <https://github.com/pulp/pulp_installer/pull/566> to
correct them.


I also wrote up a task for us to implement a better way of installing it
into the installer.
(Also to document usage variables in the installer docs.)
