* Protect AWS credentials from accidental commits

* Improve documentation for IAM policies

So there is a discrepancy between the dev guide and what has been changed on disk by toshio.

31e7d735a3 win_environment: Make this the Windows reference module
As discussed before we selected win_environment to the documentation,
and point to win_uri for a more advanced module.

If we want to make this the reference module, we have to get this one
absolutely right in every possible way.

This PR cleans up both win_environment and win_uri, and makes the
required changes to the windows module development section.

9cc63326b1 Misc docsite fixes (#30290)
* Fix refs for local_facts and various cli :option:
* Fix dev_guide/testing_pep8 refs
* remove ref to non-existing 'developing_test_pr'
* Fix ref to ansible-vault encrypt_string
* Removed hard-to-localize colloquialism.
* Rename '_ansible-pull' in playbooks_intro.

It was conflicting with rst/ansible-pull.rst. Nothing
seems to reference it.

* Add explicit targets for and update refs

Replace some ':doc:' use with ':ref:'.

Replace some :ref: to section names with explicit targets
(:doc:`Dynamic vs. Static` -> :ref:`dynamic_vs_static` etc)

* The 'YAML+Jinja' syntax lex fails here, so just use yaml

Since the yaml+jinja highlight fails, code wasnt highlighted
at all, but 'yaml' works more or less.

* just use no lexer for the < python2.6 examples

py3 will fail highlighting them, and 'python2' throws
a lexer warning, and nothing actually highlights it, so
just disable.

ff13d58c14 Remove use of unicode_literals as it is an anti-pattern
from __future__ unicode_literals leads to developer confusion as
developers no longer can tell whether a bare literal string is a byte
string or a unicode string.  Explicit marking as u"" or b"" is the way
to solve the same problem in the Ansbile codebase.

44935a5db6 Add a (disabled) code-smell test for detecting _ variables
We are reserving the _ identifier for i18n work.  Code should use the
identifier dummy for dummy variables instead.

This test is currently skipped as someone needs to generate the list of
files which are currently out of compliance before this can be turned
on.

f78baa1300 Implement ability to limit module documentation building (#24576)
* Implement ability to limit module documentation building:

- Added new option to plugin_formatter.py to support passing-in a list of
  modules for which the documentation should be built.
- Updated docuemtnation Makefile to allow specifying list of modules via
  environment variables (defaulting to all modules).
- Update instructions for building documentation and module development to
  include commands and description of limiting module documentation builds.

* Updated implementation for limiting module documentation building:

- Pass list of modules (or None) to list_modules function instead of string.
- Move conversion of module list to argument parsing code.
- No special keywords. Default ("") means build all modules. For no modules just
  specify non-existing module name.
- Updated documentation to reflect the changes.

* Updated implementation for limiting module documentation building:

- Use better default value, and don't treat "" as special case.
- Conditionally invoke different variants of command in Makefile instead of
  using special value "".

* Minor edits

3a2670e0fd Allow specific __future__ imports in modules
We do want to allow certain from __future__ imports in modules that make
it easier to code compatible python2 and python3.  Note that
unicode_literals is specifically left out and should never be allowed.
Now that python-3.4+ allows u"" there's no good reason to use
unicode_literals.

Also switch tables in the validate_modules documentation to simple table format

- Re-inforces how stable versions are maintained and for how long
- Moves this documentation out of the developer tree (this is

483df9c5f8 Imports and includes (#25399)
Initial commit to split includes into static imports/dynamic includes

This implements the new include/import syntax for Ansible 2.4:
* include_{tasks,role,variables} = dynamic
* import_{playbook,tasks,role} = static

The old bare `include` will be considered deprecated, as will any use of the `static: {yes|no}` option.

This also adds docs for import/include and reorganizing the "Playbook Reuse" section of the documentation.

2fff690caa Update module_utils.six to latest (#22855)
* Update module_utils.six to latest

We've been held back on the version of six we could use on the module
side to 1.4.x because of python-2.4 compatibility.  Now that our minimum
is Python-2.6, we can update to the latest version of six in
module_utils and get rid of the second copy in lib/ansible/compat.

04e816e13b Stricter module documentation validation (#22353)
Raise the bar for module `DOCUMENTAION`
This validator update was used to find the issues in https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/22297/files

**Validation**
* Updated Validation and docs to enforce more (items fixed in https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/22297/files)
* Use `suboptions` to document complex options 
* Validate module name
* Validate deprecated modules have correct ANSIBLE_METADATA

**Module Documentation Generation**
* Document `suboptions:` Example https://gist.github.com/gundalow/4bdc3669d696268328ccc18528cc6718
* Tidy up HTML generation (valid HTML, no empty lists, etc)
 
**Documentation**
* Clarify the steps for deprecating a module
* Use correct RST headings
* Document `suboptions:` (options)
* Document `contains:` (returns)


**Details**
The aim is to get this (and corresponding module updates) complete by the time `devel` becomes `2.4`, as this allows us to raise the bar for new modules

Example `suboptions` https://gist.github.com/gundalow/4bdc3669d696268328ccc18528cc6718

The aim is to get this PR integrated into `devel` *before* we branch `stable-2.3`, this will allows us to:
* Raise the bar for new modules in 2.4
* Ensure the generated module documentation for 2.3 and higher is improved, important as we will be doing versioned docs moving forward.
