This is a really nice improvement overall, but we can't quite get
rid of the entire function: we still need to try and open the file,
or at least stat() it, like we do in get_vault_password_file(), so
that we can error out early instead of having Ansible bail out on
us really late in the game.


So what you had in mind is something like the following squashed in?

Or we could have the check in ansible itself, but that would be a bigger change
and the codebase is not prepared for that.
