Dag Wieers cd9471ef17 Introduce new 'required_by' argument_spec option (#28662)
* Introduce new "required_by' argument_spec option

This PR introduces a new **required_by** argument_spec option which allows you to say *"if parameter A is set, parameter B and C are required as well"*.

- The difference with **required_if** is that it can only add dependencies if a parameter is set to a specific value, not when it is just defined.
- The difference with **required_together** is that it has a commutative property, so: *"Parameter A and B are required together, if one of them has been defined"*.

As an example, we need this for the complex options that the xml module provides. One of the issues we often see is that users are not using the correct combination of options, and then are surprised that the module does not perform the requested action(s).

This would be solved by adding the correct dependencies, and mutual exclusives. For us this is important to get this shipped together with the new xml module in Ansible v2.4. (This is related to bugfix https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/28657)

```python
    module = AnsibleModule(
        argument_spec=dict(
            path=dict(type='path', aliases=['dest', 'file']),
            xmlstring=dict(type='str'),
            xpath=dict(type='str'),
            namespaces=dict(type='dict', default={}),
            state=dict(type='str', default='present', choices=['absent',
'present'], aliases=['ensure']),
            value=dict(type='raw'),
            attribute=dict(type='raw'),
            add_children=dict(type='list'),
            set_children=dict(type='list'),
            count=dict(type='bool', default=False),
            print_match=dict(type='bool', default=False),
            pretty_print=dict(type='bool', default=False),
            content=dict(type='str', choices=['attribute', 'text']),
            input_type=dict(type='str', default='yaml', choices=['xml',
'yaml']),
            backup=dict(type='bool', default=False),
        ),
        supports_check_mode=True,
        required_by=dict(
            add_children=['xpath'],
            attribute=['value', 'xpath'],
            content=['xpath'],
            set_children=['xpath'],
            value=['xpath'],
        ),
        required_if=[
            ['count', True, ['xpath']],
            ['print_match', True, ['xpath']],
        ],
        required_one_of=[
            ['path', 'xmlstring'],
            ['add_children', 'content', 'count', 'pretty_print', 'print_match', 'set_children', 'value'],
        ],
        mutually_exclusive=[
            ['add_children', 'content', 'count', 'print_match','set_children', 'value'],
            ['path', 'xmlstring'],
        ],
    )

Dag Wieers 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

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()
```

Is prohibited to mutate OrderedDict during iteration through it so
is better to add records with error or warning to empty dictionary
instead of delete records from copy of dictionary during iterating.

John R Barker 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.
