This fixes an issue when running with strategy free:

ERROR! The 'ansible.builtin.pause' module bypasses the host loop, which
is currently not supported in the free strategy and would instead
execute for every host in the inventory list.

Furthermore, the documentation for ansible.builtin.pause states: To pause/wait/sleep per host, use the ansible.builtin.wait_for module.

See https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/collections/ansible/builtin/pause_module.html

Btw, someone should add a comment here to understand the need for this 10s pause.

git blame said that the first introduction of this was made by @berndfinger, do you remember something about this?

@Wabri I am shown in git blame because I, if I remember correctly, created the initial version by transferring it from another repo.

@rainerleber - I see that you changed some lines in this file after the initial version. Do you know more about why the pause module was used here?

i looks like this wait in the main.yaml could be removed, maybe it's an historic entry to work as expected before we included the modules there was a script to discover the facts
