Major Hayden dccce1d5cc Handle RHEL 7 STIG renumbering 
This patch gets the docs adjusted to work with the new RHEL 7 STIG
version 1 release. The new STIG release has changed all of the
numbering, but it maintains a link to (most) of the old STIG IDs in
the XML.

The tasks in the security role examine the world-writable directories on the system and report any directories that are not group-owned by the root user. Those directories appear in the Ansible output.

Deployers should review the list of directories and group owners to ensure that they are appropriate for the directory. Unauthorized group ownership could allow certain users to modify files from other users.
