60d134aeaf Clarify priority setting in Inventory doc (#51343)
* priority setting note in inventory doc

The `ansible_group_priority` variable is also described in *Using Variables* and was given a clarification in issue #41512. The variable is also documented in *Working with Inventory* without the caveat that it needs to be declared on the inventory and not a group_vars file. This change adds that as a note

220d224433 add note regarding {host,group}_vars directory lookup semantics (#48066)
* add note regarding {host,group}_vars directory lookup semantics

While the 'ansible-playbook' command will look for {host,group}_vars in
both the playbook and inventory directories, the 'ansible' command
will only look in the inventory directory. This follows from a close
reading of the documentation but isn't explicit and leads to the
perhaps unexpected result that you can run both commands with the same
configuration in the same directory and get different results.

This commit adds a note to the documentation making the difference in
behavior explicit.

Closes #48065

Update info on python support (#38855)
* Update the documentation to list Python 3 as official
* Add some reference targets for inventory variables so we can link to docs
* Add a platform FAQ section
  Populate it with

  * virtualenv info (previously on the python3 support page)
  * BSD (Link to the working with BSD page)
  * Solaris (Document how to work around the non-POSIX shell on some
    Solaris hosts)

  Fixes #21594

* Fix some refs in the release_and_maintenance document

* Fix unindent error in module template

Fix for the module/plugin template unintentionally unindented inside of
a raw block, leading to errors like:

ERROR: docs/docsite/rst/modules/redshift_facts_module.rst:289:0: Explicit markup ends without a blank line; unexpected unindent.

* Make wording for Solaris troubleshooting better.
