Don't break Debian-based hosts

To make it easier to add FreeBSD hosts into existing Linux-based infrastructure, it must be possible to have Debian-based and FreeBSD-based hosts in the same inventory.

As I understand it, this implies that:

• I must not replace functionality in DebOps -- I can only add to it.

  I am not aware of being able to conditionally override roles in Ansible, so I cannot for example replace roles with empty stubs if they're not needed in FreeBSD, because they are needed in Debian.

  Currently I believe adding instead of replacing is a good tradeoff, even though replacing would ease development.

• I should add CI to make sure I didn't break Debian-based things. See #5.
