Integrations matcher variables do not override Variable Group

[steunix]

I've defined a "target" variable matcher in an integration: it's correctly extracted, but it seems it does NOT override what is defined in the Variable Group (it is defined with empty value).

I use the target var as "hosts" in the playbook (hosts: {{ target }}), and it is always blank (""): if I rename the integration variable to "itarget" for example, it is correctly passed in --extra-vars.

Note that I use the same variable as a Survey Variable in the template, and it works fine.

Shouldn't variables extracted via integration behave the same way?

Note that I'm pretty sure it worked fine in some 2.16 release.

Fixed in v2.17.8 (38d2d2a)
