33d2728879 Rename python files in hacking/ directory to have .py suffix
ansible-test only passes files which have the .py suffix for sanity
tests on python files.  This change will allow sanity tests to run on
the Python files in hacking/

* Rename test-module to test-module.py
* Symlink test-module for backwards compat since end users may be using
  test-module
* Fix test-module sanity errors that are now triggered
* Rename ansible_profile to ansible-profile.py
* Rename build-ansible

146a7f8ff6 Split the metaclass == type and from future boilerplate code.
The metaclass boilerplate is safe to apply en masse.  The future import
boilerplate needs code to be inspected to be sure that there aren't any
py2isms that need to be fixed.  Split these two checks so that we can
fix them independently

Be explicit about which files are grandfathered so we can fix them up one by one

Ensures the examples can be run:

- explain how to list the target without argcomplete

* ansible-test should be in $PATH

* we don't use credentials.template anymore, we use a collection of .template files.
* low-case bash bc we refresh to name of the binary
* refresh the command of Windows-CI example
