Description

Type: Bug

Formatter changes this:

- name: Get managed instance details
   oracle.oci.oci_os_management_module_stream_profile_on_managed_instance_facts:
        auth_type: "{{ auth_type }}"

…to this:

- name: Get managed instance details
     ? oracle.oci.oci_os_management_module_stream_profile_on_managed_instance_facts
     : auth_type: "{{ auth_type }}"

Argh!

If I falsify the task name to oracle.oci.oci_os_management_module_stream_profile_on_managed_instance_fa then it works. Anything longer (any additional letters) and it fails as shown

Research direction

Start by reproducing the formatter output in VS Code with the Ansible task example and the long task name shown in the report. Trace the YAML formatter's handling of long task names and verify that formatting preserves the normal mapping form instead of introducing the ? and : structure.
