Become plugins (#50991)
* [WIP] become plugins

Move from hardcoded method to plugins for ease of use, expansion and overrides
  - load into connection as it is going to be the main consumer
  - play_context will also use to keep backwards compat API
  - ensure shell is used to construct commands when needed
  - migrate settings remove from base config in favor of plugin specific configs
  - cleanup ansible-doc
  - add become plugin docs
  - remove deprecated sudo/su code and keywords
  - adjust become options for cli
  - set plugin options from context
  - ensure config defs are avaialbe before instance
  - refactored getting the shell plugin, fixed tests
     - changed into regex as they were string matching, which does not work with random string generation
     - explicitly set flags for play context tests
 - moved plugin loading up front
 - now loads for basedir also
 - allow pyc/o for non m modules
 - fixes to tests and some plugins
 - migrate to play objects fro play_context
 - simiplify gathering
 -  added utf8 headers
 - moved option setting
 - add fail msg to dzdo
 - use tuple for multiple options on fail/missing
 - fix relative plugin paths
 - shift from play context to play
 - all tasks already inherit this from play directly
 - remove obsolete 'set play'
 - correct environment handling
 - add wrap_exe option to pfexec
 - fix runas to noop
 - fixed setting play context
 - added password configs
 - removed required false
 - remove from doc building till they are ready

future development:
  - deal with 'enable' and 'runas' which are not 'command wrappers' but 'state flags' and currently hardcoded in diff subsystems

* cleanup

  remove callers to removed func
  removed --sudo cli doc refs
  remove runas become_exe
  ensure keyerorr on plugin
  also fix backwards compat, missing method is attributeerror, not ansible error
  get remote_user consistently
  ignore missing system_tmpdirs on plugin load
  correct config precedence
  add deprecation
  fix networking imports
  backwards compat for plugins using BECOME_METHODS

* Port become_plugins to context.CLIARGS

This is a work in progress:
* Stop passing options around everywhere as we can use context.CLIARGS
  instead

* Refactor make_become_commands as asked for by alikins

* Typo in comment fix

* Stop loading values from the cli in more than one place

Both play and play_context were saving default values from the cli
arguments directly.  This changes things so that the default values are
loaded into the play and then play_context takes them from there.

* Rename BECOME_PLUGIN_PATH to DEFAULT_BECOME_PLUGIN_PATH

As alikins said, all other plugin paths are named
DEFAULT_plugintype_PLUGIN_PATH.  If we're going to rename these, that
should be done all at one time rather than piecemeal.

* One to throw away

This is a set of hacks to get setting FieldAttribute defaults to command
line args to work.  It's not fully done yet.

After talking it over with sivel and jimi-c this should be done by
fixing FieldAttributeBase and _get_parent_attribute() calls to do the
right thing when there is a non-None default.

What we want to be able to do ideally is something like this:

class Base(FieldAttributeBase):
    _check_mode = FieldAttribute([..] default=lambda: context.CLIARGS['check'])

class Play(Base):
    # lambda so that we have a chance to parse the command line args
    # before we get here.  In the future we might be able to restructure
    # this so that the cli parsing code runs before these classes are
    # defined.

class Task(Base):
    pass

And still have a playbook like this function:

---
- hosts:
  tasks:
  - command: whoami
    check_mode: True

(The check_mode test that is added as a separate commit in this PR will
let you test variations on this case).

There's a few separate reasons that the code doesn't let us do this or
a non-ugly workaround for this as written right now.  The fix that
jimi-c, sivel, and I talked about may let us do this or it may still
require a workaround (but less ugly) (having one class that has the
FieldAttributes with default values and one class that inherits from
that but just overrides the FieldAttributes which now have defaults)

* Revert "One to throw away"

This reverts commit 23aa883cbed11429ef1be2a2d0ed18f83a3b8064.

* Set FieldAttr defaults directly from CLIARGS

* Remove dead code

* Move timeout directly to PlayContext, it's never needed on Play

* just for backwards compat, add a static version of BECOME_METHODS to constants

* Make the become attr on the connection public, since it's used outside of the connection

* Logic fix

* Nuke connection testing if it supports specific become methods

* Remove unused vars

* Address rebase issues

* Fix path encoding issue

* Remove unused import

* Various cleanups

* Restore network_cli check in _low_level_execute_command

* type improvements for cliargs_deferred_get and swap shallowcopy to default to False

* minor cleanups

* Allow the su plugin to work, since it doesn't define a prompt the same way

* Fix up ksu become plugin

* Only set prompt if build_become_command was called

* Add helper to assist connection plugins in knowing they need to wait for a prompt

* Fix tests and code expectations

* Doc updates

* Various additional minor cleanups

* Make doas functional

* Don't change connection signature, load become plugin from TaskExecutor

* Remove unused imports

* Add comment about setting the become plugin on the playcontext

* Fix up tests for recent changes

* Support 'Password:' natively for the doas plugin

* Make default prompts raw

* wording cleanups. ci_complete

* Remove unrelated changes

* Address spelling mistake

* Restore removed test, and udpate to use new functionality

* Add changelog fragment

* Don't hard fail in set_attributes_from_cli on missing CLI keys

* Remove unrelated change to loader

* Remove internal deprecated FieldAttributes now

* Emit deprecation warnings now

  * 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

Make WinRM security warning more explicit.
Currently the warning is "viewed by anyone", this is a much lower risk than arbitrary command injection. Therefore the risk should be phrased appropriately.

069e0b8d57 Make modprobe module check for builtins as well (#37150)
Without this modprobe always reports changed when modprobe-ing a builtin module.

With this, if a kernel module is a builtin, the modprobe module will:
- succeed (without incorrectly reporting changed) if ``state`` is ``present``;
- fail if ``state`` is ``absent``

The failure will have whatever error message modprobe returns when
attempting to remove a builtin module. For example:
``modprobe: ERROR: Module nfs is builtin.``

baf0ad2309 Docs: Add a "seealso" section to the module docs (#45949)
* Docs: Add a separate  "seealso" section to the module docs
to list related modules and/or related references. This clears up the notes
section for things that are actual notes.

So you can add a section in your module documentation and four types of
references are possible.

    seealso:

    # Reference by module name
    - module: aci_tenant

    # Reference by module name, including description
    - module: aci_tenant
      description: ACI module to create tenants on a Cisco ACI fabric.

    # Reference by rST documentation anchor
    - ref: aci_guide
      description: Detailed information on how to manage your ACI infrastructure using Ansible.

    # Reference by Internet resource
    - name: APIC Management Information Model reference
      description: Complete reference of the APIC object model.
      link: https://developer.cisco.com/docs/apic-mim-ref/

This PR also includes:

- Implements ansible-doc support
- Implements schema support for the seealso options
- Updates to the development documentation
- Rename filter convert_symbols_to_format to rst_ify, cfr the existing html_ify and tty_ify filters
  - This makes the existing template a lot easier to read and fixes the confusion I had myself rereading the template (again).
- We fixed the possible suboption types (which was limited to 'bool' only)

* Use latest stable instead of devel docs

63b7882cbb Deprecate the github_hooks module (#49296)
It was super incomplete, and the interface was pretty strange; it had
built-in features to handle pretty bespoke workflows ("clean504",
e.g.) but was lacking lots of other useful features (like the ability
to create a webhook with a shared secret). Rather than try to update
the interface in a backwards compatible way, I've replaced it with the
more predictable, single-purpose github_webhook and
github_webhook_facts modules.

  plugin API.
* Add backwards compatibility when calling update on the new FactCache
* Remove code for calling old FactCache. There's no way to call the old
  FactCache so there's no need for backwards compatible code for calling
  code.  Backwards compatibility is handling things which are calling
  the new FactCache.
