SUMMARY
This merges implementations of
AnsibleModule.set_owner_if_different()
&AnsibleModule.set_group_if_different()
into a single method. The benefits areos.lchown()
when the copy module sets both owner and group.There should be no outward change in behavior. The two original methods become thin wrappers around the new one.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
