Update the docs to guide users to use `ansible-runner` instead of using Python API directly. In many use cases, executing Ansible playbooks are sufficient. In those use cases, `ansible-runner` is easier and much stable to use comparing with Python API, but there is no mention of it.

``ansible_loop.index0`` The current iteration of the loop. (0 indexed)
To remove ambiguity around the usage of index_var, explicitly mention that this variable is 0 indexed.

##### SUMMARY
Adding nanvault - a standalone tool to encrypt and decrypt files in the Ansible Vault format, featuring UNIX-style composability.
##### ISSUE TYPE
- Docs Pull Request
+label: docsite_pr
We have some common code used by several docs scripts. Migrate that
into the build-only shared code repository.
* Move lib/ansible/utils/_build_helpers.py to the directory for common
build code
* Migrate docs/bin/dump_config.py to a build-ansible subcommand
* Migrate dump_keywords to the build-ansible framework
* Make the script more maintainable by using functions and good
variable names
* Port to Python3 idioms
* Fix bug so that private attributes will be undocumented
* Move generate_man to a build-ansible subcommand
* Port plugin_formatter to a build-ansible subcommand
* Rework command_plugins so that docs scripts can target Python-3.4+ and
releng-only subcommands can use more recent versions of Python.
The architecture is now that command_plugins/* need to be importable
on Python-3.4. The init_parsers() method needs to run on Python-3.4.
But the main() method can utilize features of more recent Python as
long as it fits within those parameters.
* Update docs build requirements
Port the plugin_formatter to build-ansible framework
* Remove nose from unittests
This PR migrates the last of our unittests from using nose to using
pytest. We don't need to install nose in our testing environments
anymore
* docs - adapted abadger's changelog announcement email into dev process
Signed-off-by: Adam Miller <admiller@redhat.com>
* migrate changelog docs to one place, add ref to old location
Signed-off-by: Adam Miller <admiller@redhat.com>
* add changes based on feedback
Signed-off-by: Adam Miller <admiller@redhat.com>
* Refines changelog docs, minor re-org of page
* moves links and anchors for new content
* Further reorg of page
* fixes header per jamescassell
