Switch from dict to individual variables
The dictionary-based variables didn't work properly and this patch
changes them to individual variables. If users followed the existing
documentation, their environments will be unaffected by this change
(they are still broken).

The new variables follow the pattern `security_VARIABLENAME` which
will soon become the standard for the role to avoid variable name
collisions with other playbooks and roles.

Release notes are included with this patch.

**Exception**
Disabling the ``usb-storage`` module can add extra security, but it's not
necessary on most systems. To disable the ``usb-storage`` module on hosts,
set the following variable to ``yes``:
.. code-block:: yaml
security_disable_module_usb_storage: yes
**NOTE:** The module will be disabled on the next reboot.
