Move tasks to 'accounts' file 
Several tasks in the auth.yml file were actually more closely related
to accounts rather than authentication. This patch moves tasks from
the auth.yml into accounts.yml and adjusts the docs to match.

This should alleviate confusion and allow deployers to fine-tune
their Ansible playbook runs.

Although the STIG requires that all passwords have a minimum lifetime set, this can cause issue in some production environments. Therefore, deployers must opt in for this change.

Set the following Ansible variable to an integer (in days) to enable this setting:

security_password_min_lifetime_days: 1

The STIG requires the minimum lifetime for password to be one day.
