install-dependencies playbook fails when run from python2 environment

[rax-rstark]

Since January 2020 and the release of Setuptools 45, Python 2 is no longer supported by the most current release (discussion). Setuptools as a project continues to support Python 2 with bugfixes and important features on Setuptools 44.x.

This playbook tries to install setuptools latest here, but should pin to <45 for python2 environments.

This error was encountered during a maintenance last weekend:

This is already fixed for the ansible-eol branch (https://github.com/rcbops/openstack-ops/commit/e071f104800f249cc1ce6619847258041070b6e1) which tag did you use ?
