Add a porting guide entry for ansible_distribution facts (#50251)
* Add a porting guide entry for ansible_distribution facts

Switching away from platform.distro() will cause changes sometimes due
to the new code using new sources of information that may be out of sync
with the old ones.  Just have to make people aware of that and also what
we are doing to mitigate it when appropriate.

* wordsmithed, added links for new distro backend

afdbb0d9d5 Save the command line arguments into a global context
* Once cli args are parsed, they're constant.  So, save the parsed args
  into the global context for everyone else to use them from now on.
* Port cli scripts to use the CLIARGS in the context
* Refactor call to parse cli args into the run() method
* Fix unittests for changes to the internals of CLI arg parsing
* Port callback plugins to use context.CLIARGS
  * Got rid of the private self._options attribute
  * Use context.CLIARGS in the individual callback plugins instead.
  * Also output positional arguments in default and unixy plugins
  * Code has been simplified since we're now dealing with a dict rather
    than Optparse.Value

f80ce60cf9 Make WinRM security warning more explicit (#50263)
Make WinRM security warning more explicit.
Currently the warning is "viewed by anyone", this is a much lower risk than arbitrary command injection. Therefore the risk should be phrased appropriately.

069e0b8d57 Make modprobe module check for builtins as well (#37150)
Without this modprobe always reports changed when modprobe-ing a builtin module.

With this, if a kernel module is a builtin, the modprobe module will:
- succeed (without incorrectly reporting changed) if ``state`` is ``present``;
- fail if ``state`` is ``absent``

The failure will have whatever error message modprobe returns when
attempting to remove a builtin module. For example:
``modprobe: ERROR: Module nfs is builtin.``

baf0ad2309 Docs: Add a "seealso" section to the module docs (#45949)
* Docs: Add a separate  "seealso" section to the module docs
to list related modules and/or related references. This clears up the notes
section for things that are actual notes.

So you can add a section in your module documentation and four types of
references are possible.

    seealso:

    # Reference by module name
    - module: aci_tenant

    # Reference by module name, including description
    - module: aci_tenant
      description: ACI module to create tenants on a Cisco ACI fabric.

    # Reference by rST documentation anchor
    - ref: aci_guide
      description: Detailed information on how to manage your ACI infrastructure using Ansible.

    # Reference by Internet resource
    - name: APIC Management Information Model reference
      description: Complete reference of the APIC object model.
      link: https://developer.cisco.com/docs/apic-mim-ref/

This PR also includes:

- Implements ansible-doc support
- Implements schema support for the seealso options
- Updates to the development documentation
- Rename filter convert_symbols_to_format to rst_ify, cfr the existing html_ify and tty_ify filters
  - This makes the existing template a lot easier to read and fixes the confusion I had myself rereading the template (again).
- We fixed the possible suboption types (which was limited to 'bool' only)

* Use latest stable instead of devel docs

63b7882cbb Deprecate the github_hooks module (#49296)
It was super incomplete, and the interface was pretty strange; it had
built-in features to handle pretty bespoke workflows ("clean504",
e.g.) but was lacking lots of other useful features (like the ability
to create a webhook with a shared secret). Rather than try to update
the interface in a backwards compatible way, I've replaced it with the
more predictable, single-purpose github_webhook and
github_webhook_facts modules.

33f0c1ce22 FactCache changes
* Fix FactCache to conform to the dict API
  * update needs to take a dict rather than a key and a value
  * __init__ needs to allow for setting the intial dictionary
* Remove unneeded _display and _cache attributes
* Move ansible.plugins.cache.FactCache to
  ansible.vars.fact_cache.FactCache because this isn't part of the cache
  plugin API.
* Add backwards compatibility when calling update on the new FactCache
* Remove code for calling old FactCache. There's no way to call the old
  FactCache so there's no need for backwards compatible code for calling
  code.  Backwards compatibility is handling things which are calling
  the new FactCache.
* Port our code to the new FactCache location.

b0cc240665 New module: xenserver_guest - manages XenServer VMs (#41041)
* XenServer related modules - initial commit

 - New module_util: xenserver. Contains common module arguments, functions
   and classes useful for future XenServer related modules.
 - New module_docs_fragment: xenserver. Describes common module arguments.
 - New module: xenserver_guest. Supports VM deployment, reconfiguration,
   removal, detection of changes, state management, fact gathering and
   Ansible check mode. Module is fully documented.
 - Updated: developing_module_utilities.rst.
 - Module params, workflow and some functions are based on or taken from
   vmware_guest module.

* Implemented support for configuring custom VM params in xenserver_guest module

* Compatibility fixes and documentation update

 - xenserver module_util: implemented support for XenAPI.py version older
   than 7.2.
 - xenserver module_util: PEP8 fixes.
 - xenserver module_util: Added missing imports.

 - xenserver_guest module: updated module documentation with notes regarding
   module requirements and compatibility.
 - xenserver_guest module: bumped version_added to 2.7.
 - xenserver_guest module: minor fixes.

* VM power state management refactoring, subargument specs in xenserver_guest module, other fixes

 - VM power state management code moved from xenserver_guest module to xenserver
   module_util (set_vm_power_state function).
 - Code for waiting for VM IP address moved from xenserver_guest module to
   xenserver module_util (wait_for_vm_ip_address function).
 - xenserver module_util: implemented get_object_ref function to clean up
   a lot of repeated code in xenserver_guest module.
 - xenserver module_util: added additional aliases 'host' and 'pool' for
   'hostname' common module argument. They are more in line with what
   XenServer users are familiar with.
 - xenserver module_util: minor fixes.
 - xenserver_guest module: removed VM state management other than 'present',
   'absent' and 'poweredon'. Other states are to be managed by separate module.
 - xenserver_guest module: added subargument specs and cleaned up custom code
   for subargument validation.
 - xenserver_guest module: reorganized code for disk and network reconfiguation
   to minimize code duplication.
 - xenserver_guest module: renamed 'cdrom.iso' module argument to
   'cdrom.iso_name', avoids cryptic error message when parameter is
   missing.
 - xenserver_guest module: documentation update.
 - xenserver_guest module: changes in error messages.
 - xenserver_guest module: minor fixes.

* Implemented guest OS network parameter configuration and other

   list is always returned in module result.
 - xenserver_guest module: error message changes.
 - xenserver_guest module: added docstrings.
 - xenserver_guest module: documentation update.
 - xenserver_guest module: minor changes and fixes.

* Various fixes and code cleanup

 - xenserver module_util: implemented get_xenserver_version function.
 - xenserver module_util: moved customization agent detection code to
   gather_vm_params function. customization_agent variable is now part of
   vm_params. An exception in customization agent detection code that prevented
   deployment of new VMs is also fixed.
 - xenserver module_util: added support for alternative VM state names with
   dash and underscore in set_power_state function.
 - xenserver_guest module: removed customization agent detection code
   as it is now implemented in xenserver module_util.

   occured when "networks.mac" was not specified in module params and
   other fixes.
 - xenserver_guest module: some code cleanup.

Support skip of platforms by version in tests. (#48826)
* Support skip of platforms by version in tests.

Previously a remote platform could be skipped completely using the alias:

`skip/{platform}` such as `skip/rhel`

Now a specific platform version can be skipped using the alias:

`skip/{platform}{version}` such as `skip/rhel7.6`

This feature is available for platforms specified with the `--remote` option.

* Add skip by version to the docs.

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
