Apt module pass arguments

[Jeroen Rijken]

Hi,

Is it currently possible to pass apt options to the apt module? The dpkg_options are only for dpkg, I'd like to pass apt specific options like so:

`apt-get -o Dir::Etc::SourceList=/tmp/sources.list -o Dir::Etc::SourceParts=/nonexistent -o Dir::State::Lists=/tmp/lists/ update`

This doesn't work because the apt module only supports dpkg options:

```

- name: Parallel download packages | Download all required packages in parallel | Update cache

ansible.builtin.apt:

update_cache: true

dpkg_options: "Dir::Etc::SourceList=/tmp/sources.list,Dir::Etc::SourceParts=/nonexistent,Dir::State::Lists=/tmp/lists/"

when:

- ansible_facts['distribution_major_version'] != "22"

```

Kind regards, Jeroen Rijken
