xfs_quota fails to initialize new project quotas

[MichaelRiss]

Summary

When I initialize new XFS project quotas with the xfs_quota module the setup of the quotas fails, ansible is not reporting any errors (silent failure).

This is a new attempt to submit #3350, I will try to also open a new PR.

Steps to Reproduce

Have on your target machine /etc/projects with e.g.

100:/home

and /etc/projid with

home:100

- name: Set root project soft and hard limit
  community.general.xfs_quota:
    type: project
    name: home
    mountpoint: /
    bsoft: 60g
    bhard: 60g
    state: present

Check the results with xfs_quota -x -c report on the target machine before and after. The entry should change from

home              232          0          0     00 [--------]

to

home              232   62914560   62914560     00 [--------]

but it does not.

Expected Results

I expected the module to properly setup the quota project with something like xfs_quota -x -c 'project -s <project name>' /, but this setup fails.

Actual Results

The ansible playbook run finishes without error message as if there is no problem.

xfs_quota -x -c report on the target machine reveals that the quota project group has not been set up.

home              232          0          0     00 [--------]
