You cannot install a dependency needed for a filter plugin, within the same
playbook that requires it as a dependency.  Filter plugins are loaded at
ansible startup, and the imports are processed and cached by python at this
time.

As such, if it is missing at the beginning of the playbook execution, it
will remain missing for the remainder of the execution.

I should also indicate that the dependency for filters, must be installed
on the Ansible controller, and installed using the python used to run
Ansible.
