One small nit - Won't break anything but want to make sure we're consistent.

The PBS Pro modules are only installable on CentOS 7 which has long been EOL and unsupported. The solution depends on Ansible, for which we recently dropped CentOS 7 in GoogleCloudPlatform#4138. Users who want PBS Pro on supported Linux distributions are encouraged to submit a feature request at: https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/cluster-toolkit/discussions

This PR removes all support and test coverage for installing Ansible into VMs running CentOS 7. CentOS 7 has been EOL since 30 June 2024. The version of Ansible we are using is blocked by the old dependencies available within CentOS 7 so this is a first step in updating Ansible to a more recent version.
Additionally takes the first steps toward a more "fail open" model where new releases of RedHat derivatives may continue to work without modification.
Blocks on #4137.
