Skip verify with self-signed certificates

[keithf4]

Running into the error below when Grafana has TLS enabled with self-signed certificates. The ansible uri module provides the validate_certs: false option to get around this. Also the community.grafana module provides tls_skip_verify, but we need to be able to make alertmanager datasources in Prometheus which this module had so far allowed until we tried with TLS enabled.

Is there a way to disable TLS verification with this module?

An exception occurred during task execution. To see the full traceback, use -vvv. The error was: requests.exceptions.SSLError: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='192.168.122.14',
