Also adds a new test for pkcs12 files with multiple certificates

* Regenerate if parsed file is invalid

* pkcs12_other_certificates check was wrong

* Updated ca_certificates to other_certificates

ca_certificates is left as an alias to other_certificates;
friendlyname depends on private key, so it will be ignored while
checking for idempotency if the pkey is not set;
idempotency check only checks for correct certs in the stack

* use different keys for different certs

* Added other_certificates in module docs

Keith Maxwell 7fbacf920d Remove misleading statement passwords must be same (#49798)
* Remove misleading statement passwords must be same

Since 2.4 Ansible has supported multiple vault passwords:
<https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/user_guide/vault.html#multiple-vault-passwords>

Meaning lines like the following are misleading:

> The password used with vault currently must be the same for all files you wish
> to use together at the same time.

-- `docs/docsite/rst/user_guide/vault.rst`

To demonstrate this with Ansible 2.7, save the following as `example.yaml`:

```
- name: Display output from two vaults with different passwords
  hosts: localhost
  connection: local
  vars_files: [one.yaml, two.yaml]
  tasks:
    - name: View secret from one.yaml vault
      debug: { var: one }
    - name: View secret from two.yaml vault
      debug: { var: two }
```

Then run the three following commands choosing two different passwords:

```
$ echo 'one: 1' | ansible-vault encrypt --vault-id id1@prompt --output=one.yaml
$ echo 'two: 2' | ansible-vault encrypt --vault-id id2@prompt --output=two.yaml
$ ansible-playbook --vault-id id1@prompt --vault-id id2@prompt example.yaml
```

`ansible-vault` stores an ID in plain text in the vault file.

* Remove note about default in Ansible 2.1

 - added password configs
 - removed required false
 - remove from doc building till they are ready

future development:
  - deal with 'enable' and 'runas' which are not 'command wrappers' but 'state flags' and currently hardcoded in diff subsystems

* cleanup

  remove callers to removed func
  removed --sudo cli doc refs
  remove runas become_exe
  ensure keyerorr on plugin
  also fix backwards compat, missing method is attributeerror, not ansible error
  get remote_user consistently
  ignore missing system_tmpdirs on plugin load
  correct config precedence
  add deprecation
  fix networking imports
  backwards compat for plugins using BECOME_METHODS

* Port become_plugins to context.CLIARGS

This is a work in progress:
* Stop passing options around everywhere as we can use context.CLIARGS
  instead

* Refactor make_become_commands as asked for by alikins

* Typo in comment fix

* Stop loading values from the cli in more than one place

Both play and play_context were saving default values from the cli
arguments directly.  This changes things so that the default values are
loaded into the play and then play_context takes them from there.

* Rename BECOME_PLUGIN_PATH to DEFAULT_BECOME_PLUGIN_PATH

As alikins said, all other plugin paths are named
DEFAULT_plugintype_PLUGIN_PATH.  If we're going to rename these, that
should be done all at one time rather than piecemeal.

* One to throw away

This is a set of hacks to get setting FieldAttribute defaults to command
line args to work.  It's not fully done yet.

After talking it over with sivel and jimi-c this should be done by
fixing FieldAttributeBase and _get_parent_attribute() calls to do the
right thing when there is a non-None default.

What we want to be able to do ideally is something like this:

class Base(FieldAttributeBase):
    _check_mode = FieldAttribute([..] default=lambda: context.CLIARGS['check'])

class Play(Base):
    # lambda so that we have a chance to parse the command line args
    # before we get here.  In the future we might be able to restructure
    # this so that the cli parsing code runs before these classes are
    # defined.

class Task(Base):
    pass

And still have a playbook like this function:

---
- hosts:
  tasks:
  - command: whoami
    check_mode: True

(The check_mode test that is added as a separate commit in this PR will
let you test variations on this case).

There's a few separate reasons that the code doesn't let us do this or
a non-ugly workaround for this as written right now.  The fix that
jimi-c, sivel, and I talked about may let us do this or it may still
require a workaround (but less ugly) (having one class that has the
FieldAttributes with default values and one class that inherits from
that but just overrides the FieldAttributes which now have defaults)

* Revert "One to throw away"

This reverts commit 23aa883cbed11429ef1be2a2d0ed18f83a3b8064.

* Set FieldAttr defaults directly from CLIARGS

* Remove dead code

* Move timeout directly to PlayContext, it's never needed on Play

* just for backwards compat, add a static version of BECOME_METHODS to constants

* Make the become attr on the connection public, since it's used outside of the connection

* Logic fix

* Nuke connection testing if it supports specific become methods

* Remove unused vars

* Address rebase issues

* Fix path encoding issue

* Remove unused import

* Various cleanups

* Restore network_cli check in _low_level_execute_command

* type improvements for cliargs_deferred_get and swap shallowcopy to default to False

* minor cleanups

* Allow the su plugin to work, since it doesn't define a prompt the same way

* Fix up ksu become plugin

* Only set prompt if build_become_command was called

* Add helper to assist connection plugins in knowing they need to wait for a prompt

* Fix tests and code expectations

* Doc updates

* Various additional minor cleanups

* Make doas functional

* Don't change connection signature, load become plugin from TaskExecutor

* Remove unused imports

* Add comment about setting the become plugin on the playcontext

* Fix up tests for recent changes

* Support 'Password:' natively for the doas plugin

* Make default prompts raw

* wording cleanups. ci_complete

* Remove unrelated changes

* Address spelling mistake

* Restore removed test, and udpate to use new functionality

* Add changelog fragment

* Don't hard fail in set_attributes_from_cli on missing CLI keys

* Remove unrelated change to loader

* Remove internal deprecated FieldAttributes now

* Emit deprecation warnings now

- succeed (without incorrectly reporting changed) if ``state`` is ``present``;
- fail if ``state`` is ``absent``

The failure will have whatever error message modprobe returns when
attempting to remove a builtin module. For example:

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
