1a5fd720a4 Ansible galaxy role download should not have to perform aditionnal check against tar archive file extension #56616. (#56617)
Ansible galaxy role download checked for `.tar.gz`, but `tarfile.is_tarfile(...)` can identify and open any valid tarfile. This change uses transparent stream compression to make `.tar.gz` and `.tar.bz2` formats valid with python 2.6.x/2.7.x (as well as `.tar.xz` with python 3.x).

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
