Example Playbook

Including an example of how to use your role (for instance, with variables passed in as parameters) is always nice for users too:

- hosts: servers
  roles:
     - { role: hudecof.serial-console }

Adding more OS and versions

At this time I do not have more OS/version matrix to test.
