lookups, make file searching use better is_role (#82290)

* lookups, make file searching use better is_role

 The dwim function will internally try by detecting tasks/main['','.yml','.yaml]
 but this is far from optimial, the existince of role path in vars is much better
 indicator that we can use to pass a hint


* updated test to avoid main.yml
