Pass allow_unauthenticated when installing a deb directly - allowing unauthenticated dependencies

[dwyerk]

SUMMARY

There is a bug when installing a deb with dependencies in an unauthenticated repo. Normally we can just add allow_unauthenticated to the apt stanza but in the case of a deb file, the allow_unauthenticated setting is ignored. This change passes the value down to the install function so that the setting is no longer ignored.

This looks good. Would you mind adding a changelog (see https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/community/development_process.html#changelogs-how-to)? I'll merge afterwards. Thanks!

@mkrizek Sure thing. Have a look and make sure I got the changelog formatted right.
