[ansible-project] How to force creating a new ssh connection

Hello, by default Ansible uses SSH's ControlPersist feature to reuse one ssh connection for running multiple tasks. This is very nice and helpful. However, there is one situation when this is a problem: when I change sshd configuration, I want Ansible to start a new connection so that it
