For each of the 34 roles (3 clients, 9 bots, 22 bridges), this commit:
- Adds `_restart_necessary: false` default variable
- Adds `register:` directives to config/image/systemd tasks
- Computes `_restart_necessary` via set_fact (OR of all .changed results)
- Wires `(_restart_necessary | bool)` in group_vars/matrix_servers
This allows the systemd service manager to skip unnecessary restarts
when running install-* tags and nothing actually changed.
Service roles and complex multi-service roles will follow separately.

These variables track whether a database migration necessitates a service
restart. The new name avoids confusion with the conditional restart
feature introduced in af193043/9accc848/4a8df138, where
devture_systemd_service_manager handles restarting services whose
configuration or image changed. The old _requires_restart name was
ambiguous — it could be mistaken for the systemd_service_manager
mechanism — so _migration_requires_restart makes the purpose explicit.

This:
- brings consistency - no more mixing `_name_prefix` and `_registry_prefix`
- adds extensibility - a future patch will allow reconfiguring all registry prefixes for all roles in the playbook
We still have `_docker_` vs `_container_` inconsistencies.
These may be worked on later.

With this change, it should be possible for people to adjust the Docker
dependency from `docker.service` to something else (e.g. `pkg-ContainerManager-dockerd.service`),
or to completely eliminate it by setting `devture_systemd_docker_base_docker_service_name` to an empty string.
This makes it easier for people to use the playbook against a Synology DSM server.
Media didn't work before this patch, likely because this feature is broken:
> N.B. Discord now requires signed expiring download links, which means this solution no longer works. In the future, a more dynamic solution may be implemented where requests go to the bridge and the bridge and the bridge refetches the message if necessary.
Source: https://docs.mau.fi/bridges/go/discord/direct-media.html
Moreover, most users more likely don't want this behavior and would
prefer to keep a complete mirror of the media on Matrix, instead of
going through two 3rd party servers to fetch the media on demand.
The default config for the bridge
(https://github.com/mautrix/discord/blob/main/example-config.yaml)
actually does not enable it.
It seems like 4ed522e8fe
(https://github.com/spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy/pull/3133)
lied to us as to what upstream does. Poor PR review lead to this
anti-feature making it into the playbook.
This is an attempt at optimizing service startup.
The effect is most pronounced when many services are restarted one by one.
The systemd service manager role sometimes does this - for example when `just install-service synapse` runs.
In such cases, a 5-second delay for each Synapse worker service
(or other bridge/bot service that waits on the homeserver) quickly adds up to a lot.
When services are all stopped fully and then started, the effect is not so pronounced, because
`matrix-synapse.service` starts first and pulls all worker services (defined as `Wants=` for it).
Later on, when the systemd service manager role "starts" these worker services, they're started already.
Even if they had a 5-second wait each, it would have happened in parallel.
