VMware: Deprecate vsphere_guest module (#35648)
This change deprecates vsphere_guest in favor of vmware_guest and other
related modules.

The major reasons behind deprecation are -

- Pysphere - Unofficial Python bindings of vCenter deprecated in the year 2013.
- VMware provides official Python bindings for vCenter, which is used in vmware_guest.
- vcsim - simulator used in integration testing of vmware module does not support PySphere
  APIs, which makes it more difficult to test vsphere_guest.

Please see [deprecation plan](https://github.com/ansible/community/wiki/VMware%3A-vsphere_guest_deprecation)

If deploying to the first 10 hosts in Boston it should be "-limit boston[0:9]" and the next 10 should be "-limit boston[10:19]". The doc as written would skip the first host (boston[0]) and try to deploy to a host that doesn't exist (boston[20])

Module deprecation: docs, scheme and tests (#34100)
Enforce module deprecation.
After module has reached the end of it's deprecation cycle we will replace it with a docs stub.

* Replace deprecated modules with docs-only sub
* Use of deprecated past deprecation cycle gives meaningful message (see examples below)
* Enforce documentation.deprecation dict via `schema.py`
* Update `ansible-doc` and web docs to display documentation.deprecation
* Document that structure in `dev_guide`
* Ensure that all modules starting with `_` have a `deprecation:` block
* Ensure `deprecation:` block is only used on modules that start with `_`
* `removed_in` A string which represents when this module needs **deleting**
* CHANGELOG.md and porting_guide_2.5.rst list removed modules as well as alternatives
* CHANGELOG.md links to porting guide index

To ensure that meaningful messages are given to the user if they try to use a module at the end of it's deprecation cycle we enforce the module to contain:
```python
if __name__ == '__main__':
    removed_module()
```

Brian Coca bbd6b8bb42 Temporary (#31677)
* allow shells to have per host options, remote_tmp

added language to shell
removed module lang setting from general as  plugins have it now
use get to avoid bad powershell plugin
more resilient tmp discovery, fall back to `pwd`
add shell to docs
fixed options for when frags are only options
added shell set ops in t_e and fixed option frags
normalize tmp dir usag4e

- pass tmpdir/tmp/temp options as env var to commands, making it default for tempfile
- adjusted ansiballz tmpdir
- default local tempfile usage to the configured local tmp
- set env temp in action

add options to powershell
shift temporary to internal envvar/params
ensure tempdir is set if we pass var
ensure basic and url use expected tempdir
ensure localhost uses local tmp
give /var/tmp priority, less perms issues
more consistent tempfile mgmt for ansiballz
made async_dir configurable
better action handling, allow for finally rm tmp
fixed tmp issue and no more tempdir in ballz
hostvarize world readable and admin users
always set shell tempdir
added comment to discourage use of exception/flow control

* Mostly revert expand_user as it's not quite working.

This was an additional feature anyhow.

Kept the use of pwd as a fallback but moved it to a second ssh
connection.  This is not optimal but getting that to work in a single
ssh connection was part of the problem holding this up.

(cherry picked from commit 395b714120522f15e4c90a346f5e8e8d79213aca)

* fixed script and other action plugins

ensure tmpdir deletion
allow for connections that don't support new options (legacy, 3rd party)
fixed tests

Even though the command is very simple, it's good to be able to c&p it.
There were already commands for apt, emerge, pip, even direct installation

Since yum is not installed by default on any supported Fedora releases

Brian Coca 41685fb516 fix precedence issue with facts and vars (#32302)
avoid making gathered facts high precedence, only set_fact is supposed to be.
vars set via set_fact with cacheable are higher precedence than plain facts.

Previously (after 6fbd0a8bb5) regular facts would end up with a
higher precedence than host or play vars, but they should not be. Facts were getting added to 'non_persistent_facts' (equivalent to 'register' vars) which is higher precedence than facts should be.

added 'cacheable set_facts' to precedence docs

'ansible_facts_cacheable' ->  '_ansible_facts_cacheable' (made 'private')

Austin S. Hemmelgarn d5ae9d1018 Fix build on Python 3.x by using sys.maxsize. (#30424)
As outlined in https://docs.python.org/3.1/whatsnew/3.0.html#integers,
sys.maxint doesn't exist anymore in Python 3.x because there is no maximum
value for integers in Python 3.x.  sys.maxsize is present in all
versions of Python that are currently supported by Ansible, so use that
instead as an arbitrarily large index value.

Adrian Likins dfc0084f01 rename dev..general_OLD.rst to ._rst (#30291)

Adrian Likins 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.

Ganesh Nalawade 530988666a Allow delegate_to if transport is not cli (#29945)
Fixes #29060

Allow delegate_to if transport is either nxapi or eapi.

Persistent connection uses `cli` transport and create
a local socket on control node. Hence delegate_to is not allowed
for `cli` transport.

However as `nxapi` and `eapi` transport does not use persistent connection
it is possible to use delegate_to in this case.

Toshio Kuratomi 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.

  The man page needs a short desc for the 'NAME' field
  which it gets from the option parse 'desc' value.

  Fixes building ansible-config man page.

* add trim_docstring from pep257 to generate_man

  use pep258 docstring trim function to fix up any indention
  weirdness inherit to doc strings (ie, lines other than
  first line being indented.

* Add refs to cli command actions

To reference ansible-vaults --vault-id option, use:

:option:`The link text here <ansible-vault --vault-id>`

or:

:option:`--vault-id <ansible-vault --vault-id>`

To reference ansible-vault's 'encrypt' action, use:

:ref:`The link text here <ansible_vault_encrypt>`

or most of the time:

:ref:`ansible-vault encrypt <ansible_vault_encrypt>`

Andreas Maier b900f4a3be Fixed return table in module docs generated by plugin_formatter.py (#25329) (#25330)
This change fixes two issues with the generated return table:

1. When specifying a list of strings in the 'description' field of a
   return value, it shows them in Python list syntax on the resulting
   web page, e.g. `['a', 'b', 'c']`.
2. When specifying more than one line for the 'sample' field, the
   result table gets damaged in the HTML output.

In addition, this change re-arranges the HTML tags produced in the
generated RST file such that they line up nicely and can better be
checked by humans for completeness.
