Cause: Ansible is somehow converting JSON strings to the corresponding
JSON object if the value is used in a loop and the value is used
like
data: "{{ value }}"
Consequence: You cannot pass JSON strings as secrets and have the
value preserved.
Fix: Cast the data value to a string when passing to the podman_secret
module.
Result: JSON strings are preserved as-is for use in secrets.
