oci python sdk required for this module (SDK already installed)

Issue Report

Describe the issue

Even though the SDK is already installed I'm still getting an error message.
I've followed the instructions from the Troubleshooting guide but it does not work for me.

Error message:

[I am not able to run a](fatal: [chat-52]: FAILED! => {"ansible_facts": {"discovered_interpreter_python": "/usr/bin/python3"}, "changed": false, "msg": "oci python sdk required for this module.", "troubleshooting_tips": "Refer to troubleshooting guide https://docs.oracle.com/en-us/iaas/tools/oci-ansible-collection/latest/guides/troubleshooting-guide.html"})

Expected behavior

Identify oci python sdk already installed and run playbook.

hey @lucasaugustomcc some recommendations:

1. try to simulate the issue with a virtual enviroment
2. Add pythn interpreter path to vars in playbooks

vars:
    ansible_python_interpreter: /usr/bin/python3   

you can try with python3.10 that ansible --version shows is using (in case
you python 3 version is another parallel python version you have)

3. Double check that python3 version has the oci installed: ``/usr/bin/python3 -m pip show oci and `/usr/bin/python3 -m install show oci ` # in case is not
