Python interpreter discovery (#50163)
* Python interpreter discovery

* No longer blindly default to only `/usr/bin/python`
* `ansible_python_interpreter` defaults to `auto_legacy`, which will discover the platform Python interpreter on some platforms (but still favor `/usr/bin/python` if present for backward compatibility). Use `auto` to always use the discovered interpreter, append `_silent` to either value to suppress warnings.
* includes new doc utility method `get_versioned_doclink` to generate a major.minor versioned doclink against docs.ansible.com (or some other config-overridden URL)

* docs revisions for python interpreter discovery

(cherry picked from commit 5b53c0012ab7212304c28fdd24cb33fd8ff755c2)

* verify output on some distros, cleanup

7fbacf920d Remove misleading statement passwords must be same (#49798)
* Remove misleading statement passwords must be same

Since 2.4 Ansible has supported multiple vault passwords:
<https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/user_guide/vault.html#multiple-vault-passwords>

Meaning lines like the following are misleading:

> The password used with vault currently must be the same for all files you wish
> to use together at the same time.

-- `docs/docsite/rst/user_guide/vault.rst`

To demonstrate this with Ansible 2.7, save the following as `example.yaml`:

```
- name: Display output from two vaults with different passwords
  hosts: localhost
  connection: local
  vars_files: [one.yaml, two.yaml]
  tasks:
    - name: View secret from one.yaml vault
      debug: { var: one }
    - name: View secret from two.yaml vault
      debug: { var: two }
```

Then run the three following commands choosing two different passwords:

```
$ echo 'one: 1' | ansible-vault encrypt --vault-id id1@prompt --output=one.yaml
$ echo 'two: 2' | ansible-vault encrypt --vault-id id2@prompt --output=two.yaml
$ ansible-playbook --vault-id id1@prompt --vault-id id2@prompt example.yaml
```

`ansible-vault` stores an ID in plain text in the vault file.

* Remove note about default in Ansible 2.1

Become plugins (#50991)
* [WIP] become plugins

Move from hardcoded method to plugins for ease of use, expansion and overrides
  - load into connection as it is going to be the main consumer
  - play_context will also use to keep backwards compat API
  - ensure shell is used to construct commands when needed
  - migrate settings remove from base config in favor of plugin specific configs
  - cleanup ansible-doc
  - add become plugin docs
  - remove deprecated sudo/su code and keywords
  - adjust become options for cli
  - set plugin options from context
  - ensure config defs are avaialbe before instance
  - refactored getting the shell plugin, fixed tests
     - changed into regex as they were string matching, which does not work with random string generation
     - explicitly set flags for play context tests
 - moved plugin loading up front
 - now loads for basedir also
 - allow pyc/o for non m modules
 - fixes to tests and some plugins
 - migrate to play objects fro play_context
 - simiplify gathering
 -  added utf8 headers
 - moved option setting
 - add fail msg to dzdo
 - use tuple for multiple options on fail/missing
 - fix relative plugin paths
 - shift from play context to play
 - all tasks already inherit this from play directly
 - remove obsolete 'set play'
 - correct environment handling
 - add wrap_exe option to pfexec
 - fix runas to noop
 - fixed setting play context
 - added password configs
 - removed required false
 - remove from doc building till they are ready

future development:
  - deal with 'enable' and 'runas' which are not 'command wrappers' but 'state flags' and currently hardcoded in diff subsystems

* cleanup

  remove callers to removed func
  removed --sudo cli doc refs
  remove runas become_exe
  ensure keyerorr on plugin
  also fix backwards compat, missing method is attributeerror, not ansible error
  get remote_user consistently
  ignore missing system_tmpdirs on plugin load
  correct config precedence
  add deprecation
  fix networking imports
  backwards compat for plugins using BECOME_METHODS

* Port become_plugins to context.CLIARGS

This is a work in progress:
* Stop passing options around everywhere as we can use context.CLIARGS
  instead

* Refactor make_become_commands as asked for by alikins

* Typo in comment fix

* Stop loading values from the cli in more than one place

Both play and play_context were saving default values from the cli
arguments directly.  This changes things so that the default values are
loaded into the play and then play_context takes them from there.

* Rename BECOME_PLUGIN_PATH to DEFAULT_BECOME_PLUGIN_PATH

As alikins said, all other plugin paths are named
DEFAULT_plugintype_PLUGIN_PATH.  If we're going to rename these, that
should be done all at one time rather than piecemeal.

* One to throw away

This is a set of hacks to get setting FieldAttribute defaults to command
line args to work.  It's not fully done yet.

After talking it over with sivel and jimi-c this should be done by
fixing FieldAttributeBase and _get_parent_attribute() calls to do the
right thing when there is a non-None default.

What we want to be able to do ideally is something like this:

class Base(FieldAttributeBase):
    _check_mode = FieldAttribute([..] default=lambda: context.CLIARGS['check'])

class Play(Base):
    # lambda so that we have a chance to parse the command line args
    # before we get here.  In the future we might be able to restructure
    # this so that the cli parsing code runs before these classes are
    # defined.

class Task(Base):
    pass

And still have a playbook like this function:

---
- hosts:
  tasks:
  - command: whoami
    check_mode: True

(The check_mode test that is added as a separate commit in this PR will
let you test variations on this case).

There's a few separate reasons that the code doesn't let us do this or
a non-ugly workaround for this as written right now.  The fix that
jimi-c, sivel, and I talked about may let us do this or it may still
require a workaround (but less ugly) (having one class that has the
FieldAttributes with default values and one class that inherits from
that but just overrides the FieldAttributes which now have defaults)

* Revert "One to throw away"

This reverts commit 23aa883cbed11429ef1be2a2d0ed18f83a3b8064.

* Set FieldAttr defaults directly from CLIARGS

* Remove dead code

* Move timeout directly to PlayContext, it's never needed on Play

* just for backwards compat, add a static version of BECOME_METHODS to constants

* Make the become attr on the connection public, since it's used outside of the connection

* Logic fix

* Nuke connection testing if it supports specific become methods

* Remove unused vars

* Address rebase issues

* Fix path encoding issue

* Remove unused import

* Various cleanups

* Restore network_cli check in _low_level_execute_command

* type improvements for cliargs_deferred_get and swap shallowcopy to default to False

* minor cleanups

* Allow the su plugin to work, since it doesn't define a prompt the same way

* Fix up ksu become plugin

* Only set prompt if build_become_command was called

* Add helper to assist connection plugins in knowing they need to wait for a prompt

* Fix tests and code expectations

* Doc updates

* Various additional minor cleanups

* Make doas functional

* Don't change connection signature, load become plugin from TaskExecutor

* Remove unused imports

* Add comment about setting the become plugin on the playcontext

* Fix up tests for recent changes

* Support 'Password:' natively for the doas plugin

* Make default prompts raw

* wording cleanups. ci_complete

* Remove unrelated changes

* Address spelling mistake

* Restore removed test, and udpate to use new functionality

* Add changelog fragment

* Don't hard fail in set_attributes_from_cli on missing CLI keys

* Remove unrelated change to loader

* Remove internal deprecated FieldAttributes now

* Emit deprecation warnings now

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

1e68881c40 adds support for null values to the ternary filter (#45303)
* adds support for null values to the ternary filter

This change adds a third optional argument to the ternary filter to
handle a null value.  If the third option is specified null and false
are treated differently.

For instance, take the following example:

{{ enabled | ternary('no shutdown', 'shutdown') }}

If enabled == True, then 'no shutdown' is used.
If enabled in (False, None), then 'shutdown' is used.

With this change the following is possible:

{{ enabled | ternary('no shutdown', 'shutdown', omit) }}

If enabled == True, then 'no shutdown'
If enabled == False, then 'shutdown'
If enabled == None, then omit

* update documentation with example of filter

7871027c9d Share the implementation of hashing for both vars_prompt and password_hash (#21215)
* Share the implementation of hashing for both vars_prompt and password_hash.
* vars_prompt with encrypt does not require passlib for the algorithms
  supported by crypt.
* Additional checks ensure that there is always a result.
  This works around issues in the crypt.crypt python function that returns
  None for algorithms it does not know.
  Some modules (like user module) interprets None as no password at all,
  which is misleading.
* The password_hash filter supports all parameters of passlib.
  This allows users to provide a rounds parameter, fixing #15326.
* password_hash is not restricted to the subset provided by crypt.crypt,
  fixing one half of #17266.
* Updated documentation fixes other half of #17266.
* password_hash does not hard-code the salt-length, which fixes bcrypt
  in connection with passlib.
  bcrypt requires a salt with length 22, which fixes #25347
* Salts are only generated by ansible when using crypt.crypt.
  Otherwise passlib generates them.
* Avoids deprecated functionality of passlib with newer library versions.
* When no rounds are specified for sha256/sha256_crypt and sha512/sha512_crypt
  always uses the default values used by crypt, i.e. 5000 rounds.
  Before when installed passlibs' defaults were used.
  passlib changes its defaults with newer library versions, leading to non
  idempotent behavior.

  NOTE: This will lead to the recalculation of existing hashes generated
        with passlib and without a rounds parameter.
        Yet henceforth the hashes will remain the same.
        No matter the installed passlib version.
        Making these hashes idempotent.

Fixes #15326
Fixes #17266
Fixes #25347 except bcrypt still uses 2a, instead of the suggested 2b.

* random_salt is solely handled by encrypt.py.
  There is no _random_salt function there anymore.
  Also the test moved to test_encrypt.py.
* Uses pytest.skip when passlib is not available, instead of a silent return.
* More checks are executed when passlib is not available.

* Moves tests that require passlib into their own test-function.

* Uses the six library to reraise the exception.

* Fixes integration test.

When no rounds are provided the defaults of crypt are used.
In that case the rounds are not part of the resulting MCF output.
