On SLES/openSUSE, the Compose v2 CLI plugin is distributed as the 'docker-compose' package (via openSUSE OBS Virtualization:containers), not 'docker-compose-plugin' as on Debian/Ubuntu systems. The package installs the binary to /usr/lib/docker/cli-plugins/, making 'docker compose' available as a Docker CLI subcommand. Two changes: - vars/Suse.yml: set docker_compose_package to 'docker-compose' - tasks/main.yml: remove 'Suse' from the exclusion list in the 'Install docker-compose plugin' task, so SUSE uses the generic package task (without allow_downgrade, which zypper does not support). This mirrors the existing pattern for docker_packages installation (lines 22-37).

Summary
On SLES/openSUSE, the Compose v2 CLI plugin is distributed as the `docker-compose` package (via openSUSE OBS `Virtualization:/containers`), not `docker-compose-plugin` as on Debian/Ubuntu systems. The package installs the binary to `/usr/lib/docker/cli-plugins/`, making `docker compose` available as a Docker CLI subcommand.
Previously, `Suse` was explicitly excluded from both compose plugin installation tasks in `tasks/main.yml`, so `docker_install_compose_plugin: true` had no effect on SLES/openSUSE.
Changes
Testing
Verified on SLES 15 SP7 — `docker compose version` returns `Docker Compose version 2.22.0` after installation. Idempotent on re-run (no spurious `changed`).
