The shutdown task in gather_facts_ephemeral.yml previously fired on all non-Windows hosts. If the playbook was ever run with a misconfigured limit or against 'all', it would shut down production machines. Add a group_names intersect guard so shutdown only fires on hosts in linux_test_vms or game_servers groups — the only groups where ephemeral shutdown is expected.
