minor_changes:
  - create ``get_type_validator`` standalone function and move that functionality out of ``AnsibleModule`` (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/72667)
arg_spec - move validator lookup method to a function (#72667) * arg_spec - move type checking lookup method to a function * Change get_wanted_type name and behavior Change the name to get_validator to bette describe what it is doing. Change the interface to always return a value. This lines up with the behavior of get_* functions always returning something or None and check_* functions raising an Exception if something went wrong during the check. * Add param to check_type_str() Not meant to be a long term fix, but gets tests passing. More work is needed to figure out how to solve this cleanly. * Remove private attribute mapping types to validator Since the function that needs it has moved to parameters.py, there is no need to have it as a attribute of AnsibleModule. Update tests that were referencing the private attribute. * Use private method for 'str' type To avoid having to put the string conversion warning behavior in the check_type_str() method, use the private _check_type_str() method for 'str' type. Import CHECK_ARGUMENT_TYPES_DISPATCHER for backwards compalitibility and store it as a private attribute. Revert changes to support plugins that are referencing serf._CHECK_ARGUMENT_TYPES_DISPATCHER. * Add changelog * Change function name to better reflect its... function * Change dict name to better reflect its contents CHECK_ARGUMENT_TYPES_DISPATCHER --> DEFAULT_TYPE_VALIDATORS * Fix changelog 2020-12-17 23:15:00 +01:00			`minor_changes:`
