Ppmac update

[John Sinsheimer (johnsinsheimer)]

Updated ppmac commit hash to latest version to remove stream device. Also a fix was needed in the deployment test

pixi run deployment -l xf31id1-inst-ioc2.nsls2.bnl.gov -t powerpmac

was complaining that the host wasn't in the inventory.

Pull request overview

Updates the PowerPMAC IOC deployment to use a newer ppmac module revision (removing StreamDevice-related configuration) and adjusts deployment tooling/templates so local deployment tests can target a hostname that is not present in an Ansible inventory.

Changes:

• Ensure scripts/deploy_local_config.py always supplies an inline inventory (-i <hostname>,) for ansible-playbook.
• Bump PowerPMAC required module from ppmac_7d627e7 to ppmac_91b4edc and remove the StreamDevice protocol-path env var.
• Simplify/modernize powerpmac substitution templates and verification expectations (remove several old substitution files; make cs.substitutions conditional on virtual_axes).

Did you run from runansible? From there the inventory is automatically sync-ed from explorer. I think with this change it should be possible to execute deployments from your personal machine though, which is pretty convenient.
