* 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.
Just after release of 2.0.0 (in 2.0.0.1) we had a change to the API of
callbacks without bumping the API version. We added the playbook to the
arguments passed to the callbacks.
This wasn't in the Tower callback at the time. In order to prevent
breaking that callback we added a temporary hack to inspect the
callback's API to decide if we needed to call it with arguments or not.
We scheduled the hack for removal in January 2017. Since that's now
past, removing the hack.
Change signed off by matburt on the Tower side.
In order to support legacy plugins, the following two method signatures
are allowed for `CallbackBase.v2_playbook_on_start`:
def v2_playbook_on_start(self):
def v2_playbook_on_start(self, playbook):
Previously, the logic to handle this divergence checked to see if the
callback plugin being called supported an argument named `playbook`
in its `v2_playbook_on_start` method. This was fragile in a few ways:
- if a plugin author did not use the literal `playbook` to name their
method argument, their plugin would not be called correctly
- if a plugin author wrapped their `v2_playbook_on_start` method and
by doing so changed the argspec to no longer expose an argument
with that literal name, their plugin would not be called correctly
In order to continue to support both types of callback for backwards
compatibility while making the call more robust for plugin authors,
the logic can be reversed in order to have a positive check for the old
method signature instead of a positive check for the new one.
