Bug description

For some reason, zos_apf is failing for us when the dataset is already in the APF list:

fatal: [host]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "rc": 8, "stderr": "BGYSC4710E ADD Error: Dataset DASD.LOADLIB volume *SMS* is already present in APF list.\n", "stderr_lines": ["BGYSC4710E ADD Error: Dataset DASD.LOADLIB volume *SMS* is already present in APF list."], "stdout": "", "stdout_lines": []}

I was expecting this module to just skip or noop if there's nothing for it to do.

Updates: We are working with ZOAU to change the behavior of the apfadm utility, is planned to be completed for ZOAU 1.3.4 and adoption should be transparent for us but validation task will take place in Q12025.
