Bug Description

If a deployer has not properly configured their secrets, the keepalived role will deploy keepalived in a broken state and keepalived will immediately crash with an error:

  *** Configuration line starting `auth_pass` is missing a parameter after keyword `auth_pass` at word position 2

We should detect the misconfiguration and alert the deployer.

We have the safeguards since the creation of the role. If the password is not defined, it will not have a auth_pass section. If someone has it defined it will use it.

Additional password checks could be done, but it would be a never ending story.
