Improve emitter logic: Only run upgrade tasks if full run not needed.

If a machine's timestamp is older than the date of the last
git commit, do a full ansible run.  If the time stamp is older
than the trigger time (given as argument to 'emitter') but
younger than the latest git commit, run only the upgrade tasks.

A single outdated machine triggers the full run for all
machines in the list.
