* Update channel references to point at the same channel name on libera.chat
* Update generic links to https://libera.chat
* In general, use irc.libera.net for link names/text and https://libera.chat for link targets.
The irc service is hosted on irc.libera.chat but the project web server is hosted on
libera.chat.
* Removed http://irc.freenode.net from the linkcheck exceptions.
* Add a link to where contributors should get support
for developing groups of modules to docs/docsite/rst/dev_guide/developing_modules_in_groups.rst

* Split Ansible docs from core docs (#73616)
* excludes scenario guides from core docs, splits porting guides and roadmaps, symlinks indices to create index.html pages, and adds .gitignore entries for conf.py and the toplevel index.rst files generated by the docs build
This solution builds three types of docs:
* ansible-2.10 and earlier: all the docs. Handle this via `make webdocs
ANSIBLE_VERSION=2.10`
* ansible-3 and later: a subset of the docs for the ansible package.
Handle this via `make webdocs ANSIBLE_VERSION=3` (change the
ANSIBLE_VERSION to match the version being built for.
* ansible-core: a subset of the docs for the ansible-core package.
Handle this via `make coredocs`.
* `make webdocs` now always builds all the collection docs
* Use `make coredocs` to limit it to core plugins only
* The user specifies the desired version. If no ANSIBLE_VERSION is specified, build plugins for the latest release of ansible

* docs: Remove examples using the `ec2.py` script (#69107)
This script is mostly unmaintained and relies on the deprecated and
unmaintained `boto` library. Featuring it prominently in the docs
leads to many new users using it instead of the supported `aws_ec2`
inventory plugin.
