* Add prefix to `origin` when configuration variables come from ini files
Fixes ansible#82387
This change was suggested by @bcoca in
https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/82388#discussion_r1424235728 and
https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/82388#discussion_r1424249732
When configuration variables come from an ini file, their `origin` is
now set to `ini: <file>`. Similarly, once supported, YAML configuration
files will have their `origin` as `yaml: <file>`.
Consequently, since unquoting configuration strings should happen if and
only if they come from an ini file, this condition boils down to testing
whether their `origin` starts with `ini:`.
* Do not add prefix to `origin` but explicitly pass `origin_ftype`
So as not to rely on a specific format of the `origin` string,
as suggested by @sivel in

* Add test for 256-color configuration values
See #78607.
* color is not restricted to 16 choices
currently supports up to 256, not listing them all
TOOD: create examples and point to/list the basic 16

* Fix encoding issues with file paths.
Discovered while testing with ANSIBLE_CONFIG env var set to a path
that contained unicode characters while LC_ALL=C.
* Fix unit tests.
* Fix another path encoding issue.
* Move ansible.compat.tests to test/units/compat/.
* Fix unit test references to ansible.compat.tests.
* Move builtins compat to separate file.
* Fix classification of test/units/compat/ dir.
Only print warning when ansible.cfg is actually skipped
* Also add unittests for the find_ini_config_file function
* Add documentation on world writable current working directory
config files can no longer be loaded from a world writable current
working directory but the end user is allowed to specify that
explicitly. Give appropriate warnings and information on how.
