d84df2405d move from with_<lookup>: to loop:
- old functionality is still available direct lookup use, the following are equivalent

  with_nested: [[1,2,3], ['a','b','c']]

  loop: "{{lookup('nested', [1,2,3], ['a','b','c'])}}"

- avoid squashing with 'loop:'
- fixed test to use new intenal attributes
- removed most of 'lookup docs' as these now reside in the plugins

15dffe04dd fix misformatted docsite link (#31384)
reason: The link is showing verbatim in the docs, where it should only
show "knowledge base article".

Also, generating the docs shows a lot of:

docs/docsite/rst/win_acl_module.rst:424: WARNING: Unknown target name: "know ledge base article<https://access.redhat.com/articles/rhel-top-support-policies>".

b79d15e67f Improve and link Network Proxy docs (#31316)
* Improve and link Network Proxy docs

It is possible for proxy issues to cause "unable to open shell", so
detail there.

Having the "how-to" in the debug page makes more sense than on the
porting page, so move it.

Fixed a few formatting issues at the same time.

ba0b91b51b Remove git:// urls from docsite and from packaging (#30459)
It's almost always preferable to clone by way of https:// rather than
using the bare git:// protocol. Not only does https:// provide
stronger guarantees it also plays nicer with corporate proxies, etc.

So there is a discrepancy between the dev guide and what has been changed on disk by toshio.

31e7d735a3 win_environment: Make this the Windows reference module
As discussed before we selected win_environment to the documentation,
and point to win_uri for a more advanced module.

If we want to make this the reference module, we have to get this one
absolutely right in every possible way.

This PR cleans up both win_environment and win_uri, and makes the
required changes to the windows module development section.

d5ae9d1018 Fix build on Python 3.x by using sys.maxsize. (#30424)
As outlined in https://docs.python.org/3.1/whatsnew/3.0.html#integers,
sys.maxint doesn't exist anymore in Python 3.x because there is no maximum
value for integers in Python 3.x.  sys.maxsize is present in all
versions of Python that are currently supported by Ansible, so use that
instead as an arbitrarily large index value.

Fixes the following build error when building with Python 3.x:
make -j1 docs
mkdir -p ./docs/man/man1/ ; \
PYTHONPATH=./lib docs/bin/generate_man.py --template-file=docs/templates/man.j2 --output-dir=docs/man/man1/ --output-format man lib/ansible/cli/*.py

da15cf1f54 Generate plugin rst (#28901)
Generate rst docs for plugins 

Based on rst generated for modules. But generated plugin
docs go into docs/docsite/rst/plugins/$PLUGIN_TYPE/plugin_name.rst
( docs/docsite/rst/plugins/connection/ssh.py for ex)

* move plugins docs to rst/*_plugins/ subdirs for namespace
* Only gen support pages for modules for now.
* Add generated plugin docs to gitignore* add list_*_plugins templates
* support MODULES/PLUGINS filters for make htmldocs

   Add a 'PLUGINS=ssh' filter env var like MODULES to filter plugins to build docs for.

* fixup 'historical' version_added, skip plugins/loader.py
* Fix plugins_by_support ref link to new plugins/*/ location
* use :ref: for common_return_values, allow empty version_added
* warnings on missing doc info
* add a prefix to _random_choice
  It was colliding with the target for random_choice plugin
