6636401246 Improve default values and choices in module docs (#36901)
* Improve default values and choices in module docs

So currently we show defaults and choices in separate columns.

For each parameter we have
- Mostly empty default and choices cells
- A list of choices and a separate default value
- Only a default value

So there's a lot of space being wasted on empty cells.
We can do this better.

* Improve Parameters section

* Add Choices back into column header

* Ensure the tables spans the complete page width

eb52a88fb6 Improve module docs return values (#36943)
* Improve module docs return values

Currently the 5 columns shown doesn't make optimal use of the screen
estate, especially for facts modules this is a problem.

* Add returned facts as a separate section

* Remove whitespace and add support section

Since Notes were moved higher up, the Author, Status and Maintainer
information was now placed under the Return Values section.

* Switch Last Updated and Copyright

eae0aa0592 Automatically stuff reference in commit message (#36844)
* Automatically stuff reference in commit message

So we probably want to track which edits were performed through the
Github interface, and this change automatically adds a label to the
commit message.

```yaml
<!--- Your description here -->

+label: docsite_pr
```

Eventually this allows to (on regular basis) list the changes from
documentation readers and process them in a separate process.

38abda544f Improve module docs wrt. required params (#36812)
So I am still not satisfied with how required parameters are being
displayed (before it was yes/no, then it became required/optional, and
only required).

Now it will display in small green 'required' under the parameter name.
This is more convenient, and provides more room for the description.
Especially on smaller screens.

974c50a417 Move notes higher up in order (#36815)
So people reading the module documentation usually look for parameters
first, and are interested in examples. However the notes are at the very
end even below the Return Values (the least interesting part).

So this change moves the notes higher up, below parameters, but before
examples so people at least see the notes.

57d5b8642a Add examples to YAMLSyntax; fix minor issues and improve wording (#35703)
* Add examples to YAMLSyntax; fix minor issues and improve wording

I added proper titles to "Flow Collections" and "Block Scalars", because these
are official YAML Terms, so people can find better help when having issues.

I changed the "ignored newlines" to "folded newlines" because I think ignoring
gives a wrong impression, especially since empty lines (more than one newline)
are not ignored and have a special meaning.

I added an example how to enforce a newline in a folded block scalar.

I fixed the list of characters that are allowed/not allowed in plain and
double quoted scalars.

I added the #yaml channel to the IRC link.

I added links to the YAML Specs. For completeness, I also included YAML 1.2,
