dict provided inventory not read in containerized mode due to incorrect path set

[christophert]

When inventory is provided via a Python dict, the output is not written to the correct path in the directory structure. This snippet:

ansible-runner/src/ansible_runner/utils/__init__.py

Line 234 in 58b7ff5

kwargs['inventory'] = dump_artifact(json.dumps(obj), path, 'hosts.json')

writes the content to inventory/hosts.json while the runner looks for the inventory in inventory/hosts which is set (for containerized mode) in

ansible-runner/src/ansible_runner/config/runner.py

Line 163 in 58b7ff5

self.inventory = '/runner/inventory/hosts'

I've been digging in to the inventory related code recently and can confirm this is definitely a thing that has been broken for a while.
