module: win_hostname
version_added: "2.0"
short_description: Hostname setting
description:
     - |
        Change a window server hostname, before it is bound to Active directory.
        The module is inspired by a more comprehensive solution called
        win_host by github.com/schwartzmx.
        His module failed to work on this setup. Long term should fix his module
        and just use that. This is a workaround for now.
