move roles, files and templates dirs out of playbook dir into root dir
Because of how Ansible local relative search paths work, the global
"files" and "templates" directories need to be next to the playbooks.
However its not intuitive to look into the "playbooks" directory to find
the files and templates for a host.
Therefore move them out of the "playbooks" directory into the root
directory and add symlinks so everything still works.

Similarly for local roles, they also need to be next to the playbooks.
So for a nicer structure, move the "roles" directory out into the root
directory as well and add a symlink so everything still works.
