Add `scope` parameter to `systemd_info` module

[antonc42]

Summary

The ansible.builtin.systemd_service module has a scope parameter that accepts the options system (default), user, and global. I think adding a similar parameter to the community.general.systemd_info module would be useful so that information could be gathered about user units. Although less common, user units are sometimes used for things like Podman rootless containers (Quadlets or the older podman generate systemd). As far as I can tell, there is no Ansible module that gathers this information. Like the community.general.systemd_info module, the ansible.builtin.service_facts module only gathers facts about system services.
