fix(kibana): run the readiness probe under bash so pipefail works on dash

[Oddly]

The Kibana readiness probe starts with set -o pipefail but never set an executable, so Ansible ran it under /bin/sh. On Debian and Ubuntu that is dash, which rejects the option and the probe dies with "Illegal option -o pipefail" on every retry, failing converge for every Kibana-deploying scenario on those distros. That is why the scheduled full-distro matrix has been red on debian12/ubuntu while the PR matrix (rockylinux10 + debian13, where I caught it) mostly stayed green. Adding executable: /bin/bash is what the collection already does for pipefail shells.

I audited the whole class rather than the one reported spot. The same probe lives in three places and all three get the fix: the two role copies and the stopped-Kibana check in molecule/kibana_extras/verify.yml, where the bug was masked because that task exits 2 for a stopped service regardless. molecule/shared/create.yml matches the grep too but is a false positive — its pipefail runs inside a remote bash -s heredoc, not the local shell.

Fixes #201

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change sets /bin/bash as the executable for Kibana readiness shell tasks in the role and molecule verification paths.

Changes

Kibana readiness checks

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Explicit Bash execution for readiness checks molecule/kibana_extras/verify.yml, roles/kibana/tasks/main.yml, roles/kibana/tasks/restart_and_verify_kibana.yml	The readiness shell tasks now explicitly use /bin/bash. The probe logic is unchanged.

Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~2 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to aaa24

The readiness probe now runs under Bash so pipefail works on affected distributions. One verification path can still pass without proving Bash was used, so adding an explicit Bash assertion is recommended as a bounded follow-up.
