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
* Implement a framework for having common code for release scripts
* Release scripts will go through hacking/build-ansible. build-ansible is
a pluggable script which will set a directory that has common code for
non-enduser scripts. It will then invoke the plugin which implements
that subcommand. Uses straight.plugin for loading each sub-command.
* We're going to add tools which are needed to test ansible (the changelog
generation, for instance) so we need to include the pieces relevant to
that in the tarball.
* Add straight.plugin to the sanity test requirements for the same
reason
* Skip compile test just for build-ansible plugins which won't be run as
part of sanity tests.
