Got KeyError when using ansible.posix.json as callback plugin

[NitroCao]

How to reproduce:

• export ORIGINAL_STDOUT_CALLBACK=ansible.posix.json
• ansible-runner run . -p /tmp/demo-playbook.yaml --inventory hosts --omit-event-data --cmdline='-vvv'
• The content of /tmp/demo-playbook.yaml is:

  
  ---

• name: Demo task hosts: all tasks:
  • name: ping ping: {}

The output is:

KeyError: 'json_indent'
```

Linux distro: Arch Linux.
Ansible version: 2.15.0
Python version: 3.11.3
ansible-runner version: 2.3.3, installed via pip command.

By the way, it works fine when executing ansible-playbook directly. My workaround is to catch the exception and initialize self._json_indent to 0 in the exception handler.

Yes, having exactly the same issue when calling ansible-runner from Python code. Running playbook directly or using other callback plugins gives no errors

@NitroCao I also have the same problem, how did you fix it?
