Use `command` instead of `shell`ANS-E3005

Major severityMajor
Anti-pattern categoryAnti-pattern

Use shell only when shell functionality is required.

Shell should only be used when piping, redirecting or chaining commands (and Ansible would be preferred for some of those!)

Bad practice

- name: command should be used here
  shell: echo hello

- name: chain two shell commands
  shell: echo hello && echo goodbye
