Ensures the examples can be run:
- fedora25 is not available anymore, use fedora29 instead
- the posix/ci alias does not exist anymore, use shippable/posix/ instead
- explain how to list the target without argcomplete

* ansible-test should be in $PATH
* call ansible-runner from bin/, not test/runner
* 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
* Update docs/docsite/rst/dev_guide/testing_integration.rst

5bdc6636bc Fix the example plugin paths (#52881)
Based on https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/reference_appendices/config.html
the default callback paths do not contain `_plugin`. Thus `~/.ansible/plugins/callback_plugins` and `/usr/share/ansible/plugins/plugin_type/action_plugins` are incorrect. Verified on 2.7.5 that by default `plugins/action` works and `plugins/action_plugins` does not.
