podman_container quadlet downloads image in checkrun

[mstinsky]

As the title stats. When using podman_container with state quadlet and running in check mode the module downloads the image defined in the ansible task. A checkrun should not do that and only show the quadlet file that is rendered.

Simple test:

- name: Test nginx
  containers.podman.podman_container:
    state: quadlet
    name: nginx-test
    image: docker.io/nginx:latest

Before running the task check podman images that shows the image does not exist. Running the task in check mode shows:

/etc/containers/systemd does not have the quadlet file as expected but the image was downloaded:

podman images | grep nginx
docker.io/library/nginx                                    latest               3b25b682ea82  5 weeks ago    196 MB
