* Note: Python2 is not as intelligent at detecting false import loops as
Python3. context_objects.py cannot be added to cli/arguments because it
would set up an import loop between cli/__init__.py,
cli/arguments/context_objects.py, and context.py on Python2.

The goal of breaking apart the base_parser() function is to get rid of
a bunch of conditionals and parameters in the code and, instead, make
code look like simple composition.
When splitting, a choice had to be made as to whether this would operate
by side effect (modifying a passed in parser) or side effect-free
(returning a new parser everytime).
Making a version that's side-effect-free appears to be fighting with the
optparse API (it wants to work by creating a parser object, configuring
the object, and then parsing the arguments with it) so instead, make it
clear that our helper functions are modifying the passed in parser by
(1) not returning the parser and (2) changing the function names to be
more clear that it is operating by side-effect.
Also move all of the generic optparse code, along with the argument
context classes, into a new subdirectory.
* Once cli args are parsed, they're constant. So, save the parsed args
into the global context for everyone else to use them from now on.
* Port cli scripts to use the CLIARGS in the context
* Refactor call to parse cli args into the run() method
* Fix unittests for changes to the internals of CLI arg parsing
* Port callback plugins to use context.CLIARGS
* Got rid of the private self._options attribute
* Use context.CLIARGS in the individual callback plugins instead.
* Also output positional arguments in default and unixy plugins
* Code has been simplified since we're now dealing with a dict rather
than Optparse.Value
* Move ansible.compat.tests to test/units/compat/.
* Fix unit test references to ansible.compat.tests.
* Move builtins compat to separate file.
* Fix classification of test/units/compat/ dir.
* test/: PEP8 compliancy
- Make PEP8 compliant
* Python3 chokes on casting int to bytes (#24952)
But if we tell the formatter that the var is a number, it works
This feature changes the scalar value of `serial:` to a list, which
allows users to specify a list of values, so batches can be ramped
up (commonly called "canary" setups):
- hosts: all
serial: [1, 5, 10, "100%"]
tasks:
...
Ansible when there was a percentage that was calculated to be less than
1.0 would run all hosts as the value for a rolling update.
The error is due to the fact that Python will round a
float that is under 1.0 to 0, which will trigger the case of
0 hosts. The 0 host case tells ansible to run all hosts.
The fix will see if the percentage calculation after int
conversion is 0 and will else to 1 host.
