-												alternatives: handle absent link, add integration tests (#27967)

* alternatives: add integration tests

* alternatives: handle absent link (fix AttributeError)

Error occurred at least on Debian Stretch and OpenSuse 42.2:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/tmp/ansible_RY6X41/ansible_module_alternatives.py", line 161, in <module>
    main()
  File "/tmp/ansible_RY6X41/ansible_module_alternatives.py", line 113, in main
    current_path = current_path_regex.search(display_output).group(1)
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'group'

update-alternatives stdout sample:
dummy - manual mode
  link best version is /usr/bin/dummy1
  link currently absent
  link dummy is /usr/bin/dummy

* alternatives: PEP 8 fixes

* alternatives: fix copyright in integration tests

* alternatives: nested loops handle more than 2 items

Thanks to Michael Scherer (@mscherer) for pointing that.

* alternatives: enable integration tests
