Upgrade Crowd

To upgrade Crowd, simply change the version variable to a higher version number. Old binary versions will be preserved but not further used. You should delete them manually.

Please do a proper backup prior upgrading, as the Crowd data will not work with older versions. If you set a lower version than installed, the role will fail.

The current version is saved as ansible fact in /etc/ansible/facts.d/
