This is a backport of PR #2259 as merged into devel (2e09b53).
I should have caught this before approving the PR that added these examples.
When the dependency resolver was added to ansible-galaxy in 2.12, it inadvertently overloaded the
source
collection requirement field, which was previously only able to be a URL to a galaxy server. Now it is sort of an alias toname
in some situations, and it's a bug because we had specifically discussed not unifying rolesrc
vs collectionsource
for requirements, because although it's unfortunate that they're similarly named but completely different features (one is a URL to a role, the other is a URL galaxy server), it was outside of the scope of that PR (and at the time of discussion, I was under the impression we would want to make the role syntax more like collections though - not the other way around).
