* New feature: NIC can now be E1000 or VMXNet3 (default)
* New feature: customize NIC mac address
* New feature: new disk option autoselect_datastore permit to select the less used datastore. If datastore field is provided, filter the datastore list before selection
* New feature: Implement disk resizing + addition when state=present and VM exists
* New feature: when state=present and vm exists, modify the current CPU, Memory and disk space

* New feature: resource pool support
* New feature: change VM configuration without recreating it (CPU, memory, disks, network, guest ID, resource pool)
* Add 'gatherfacts' state to gather facts on a VM instead of previous 'present' state ('present' ensure the VM configuration)
* Add PyVmomiCache class to cache read only object
* Various python code fixes
* Various documentation fixes
* esxi_hostname & cluster are now exclusive
* Drop ips attribute & set ip directly into networks
* Little performance fixes by removing some duplicate calls to VMWare API
* Python 3 portability fixes
* Create many functions to make the code maintainable
* Cleanup some useless attributes
* Add 'suspended' as desired state for VM
* Make guest_id, memory & CPU number optional in reconfiguration mode
* Note: guest_id is now mandatory to create a VM from scratch (not templating)
* Bux fixes + Do network IP optinal + Add network vlan option
- Consistent capitalisation in the descriptions
- Removed redundant 'optional' notes when this is covered by the Boolean `optional` column
- Clarified `instance_id` description
* set is_public 'true' or 'false'
Despite being a boolean property, https://github.com/melta/boto/blob/master/boto/ec2/image.py:63 sets is_public = True only if the argument is passed in as the string 'true'. Likewise for False/'false'.
This is a workaround for that bug in boto2, to allow the documented parameter to work with valid yaml values.
fixes#5600
* only set is_public if true
Actual doc give this error
```
fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {
"changed": false,
"failed": true,
"invocation": {
"module_args": {
"command": "facts",
"register": "new_database_facts"
},

```
Register should be at the module `rds` level and not at args level in this example :
```
- rds:
command: facts
instance_name: new-database
- register: new_database_facts
+ register: new_database_facts
```
The gce_tag module can support updating tags on multiple instances via an instance_pattern field. Full Python regex is supported in the instance_pattern field.
'instance_pattern' and 'instance_name' are mutually exclusive and one must be specified.
The integration test for the gce_tag module has been updated to support the instance_pattern parameter. Unit tests have been added to test the list-manipulation functionality.
Run the integration test with:
TEST_FLAGS='--tags "test_gce_tag"' make gce
Run the unit tests with:
python test/units/modules/cloud/google/test_gce_tag.py
* Add new parameters to taskdefinition module - network_mode and task_role_arn
* Add version_added field for doco
* Change version_added parameter to 2.3
* Allow re-using an existing template when updating a stack by not passing 'template' or 'template_url'. This is a big one for me as our deploy process creates a new stack and then modifies the old one; to avoid changing the resources inside the old one, we have had to avoid using the Ansible module and use the AWS CLI instead in order to pass `--use-previous-template`.
* Split create and update logic into separate functions
* Remove dead `update` variable

##### ISSUE TYPE
- Docs Pull Request
##### COMPONENT NAME
ec2_group.py
##### ANSIBLE VERSION
```
ansible 2.0.2.0
config file = /Users/tpai/src/cm-secure/ansible.cfg
configured module search path = Default w/o overrides
```
##### SUMMARY
Make it clear you can specify the created group in the rules list, allowing idempotent use for group<->group networking rules.
This is a really useful feature that isn't obvious enough in the docs.
