Quoting empty braces inside jinja blocks (i.e. {{ '{}' }}) tells jinja to treat
the braces as a string instead of as an empty dict. Since these occur in jinja
blocks, the yaml processor has already interpretted them as strings, and there is
no threat of the yaml processor interpretting the braces as a yaml object.
As-is, the quoted strings cause errors such as:
FAILED! => {"failed": true, "msg": "|combine expects dictionaries, got '{}'"}

Use Cases
- Installation of ironic in standalone/noauth mode without other OpenStack components.
- Deployment of an operating system to a known pool of hardware as a batch operation.
- Testing and development of ironic in a standalone use case.
