Uncompress collection for ansible. Lets you download an uncompress .gz and .bz2 files

which currently isn't possible with the unarchive built-in module.

https://galaxy.ansible.com/ui/repo/published/compscidr/uncompress/

Motivated by the push-back against .gz .bz2 not being supported for compressed

files: https://github.com/ansible/ansible-modules-core/issues/3241#issuecomment-240991265

and the existance of this project: https://github.com/vadikgo/uncompress.

Updating the existing project to support installation via a `meta/requirements.yml`

file and then submitting to ansible galaxy so that it can be found and installed

easily.

## installation via galaxy:

`ansible-galaxy collection install compscidr.uncompress`

## installation via galaxy / requirements

Add the following to `requirements.yml`

```

collections:

- name: compscidr.uncompress

```

Then run

`ansible-galaxy install -r requirements.yml`

## installation via git / requirements

Add the following to your `requirements.yml` file:

```

collections:

  - name: git+https://github.com/compscidr/ansible-uncompress.git,main

```

Then run

`ansible-galaxy install -r requirements.yml`
