I am trying to edit a string in a multi-line file.  For instance, if I had 
this string:

This is a file and I am editing it

I want to add the string "new" in front of file *if* it does not exist 
already.

I've tried lineinfile, but the issue is that I don't know what else is on 
the line.  There could be more data after "This is a file and I am editing 
it" that I don't want to change.  What is the best way to do this?
