Add Ansible for SLES at Scale Toolkit packaging

See this idea on ideas.ibm.com

As known, Ansible is required for Scale Toolkit. The installation of Ansible is done through pip3 install and it connects to a repository to install Ansible.

Some clients, special in financial sector, have restrictions to make their servers with external internet connection for this type of installation.

This challenge had been overcame by adding the ansible package along with the Scale Toolkit packages. This is already done for Linux Redhat.

However, packages for SUSE Linux is not currently packaged with toolkit.

The idea is to add the Ansible packages within Scale toolkit for all platforms, including SUSE Linux.
