Since man pages aren't accessible to users after a `pip install`, there's no need to include them in the sdist.
This change makes it trivial to build man pages from source, which makes them much easier to iterate on.
It also simplifies creation and testing of the sdist, since it no longer requires building man pages.
The new `packaging/cli-doc/build.py` script can generate both man pages and RST documentation.
This supports inclusion on the docs site without a dependency on `ansible-core` internals.
Having a single implementation for both simplifies keeping the two formats in sync.
* update docker containers versions to use newer ansible-test ref in the pre-built venvs
* Allow invoking ansible-test with Python 3.12
* Add python3.12 to the INTERPRETER_PYTHON_FALLBACK
* changelog
* add Python 3.12 as a non-default Python version for the test containers
* Update mypy ignores for Python 3.12
* Add Python 3.12 to CI matrix for unit tests, generic tests, and galaxy
* Update unit test for using the Python 2 collection loader path with Python 3.
Skip the existing test on Python 3.12, since find_module is removed.
Suppress the pre-existing deprecation warnings using the Python 2
codepath with Python 3.
Add a test for Python >= 3.12, which doesn't call find_module.
* Ignore sanity test errors on systems without libselinux present.
* ansible-test - Limit scope of replace-urlopen test
Only ansible-core code and plugins in collections can be expected to rely on module_utils.
* ansible-test - Limit scope of use-compat-six test
Only ansible-core code and plugins in collections can be expected to rely on module_utils.
* ansible-test - Limit scope of no-get-exception test
Only ansible-core code and plugins in collections should be checked for usage of outdated module_utils functions.
* Add integration tests
* Remove docs dir
* Updates to reflect docs removal
* Fix integration test
* Remove examples dir
* Updates to reflect examples removal
* Remove build_library and build-ansible.py
* Remove refs to build_library and build-ansible.py
* Remove obsolete template
* Remove obsolete template reference
* Remove the now obsolete rstcheck sanity test
* replace deprecated ast.value.s with ast.value.value
the s attribute is deprecated since Python 3.8 and emits a warning in
3.12 causing some test failures
- Unit tests now report warnings generated during test runs.
- Python 3.12 warnings about `os.fork` usage with threads (due to `pytest-xdist`) are suppressed.
- Added integration tests to verify forked test behavior.
* Update `collections.abc` imports
- Use `six.moves` for modules and module_utils
- Use `collections.abc` for controller code
This avoids using `ansible.module_utils.common._collections_compat`,
which was added before the vendored `six` was updated to provide these
imports.
* Update _collections_compat to use six.moves
Also update the custom pylint rule to reflect this change.
* validate-modules - Remove `__future__` limits
Limits on specific `__future__` imports are handled by other sanity tests.
* Add integration test for module/plugin imports.
* validate-modules: don't fail on invalid YAML
When validate-modules encounters invalid YAML (e.g. in the EXAMPLES
section), it tries to reformat the exception to include the line number
in the Python file instead of the line number of the embedded YAML
document. However, PyYAML doesn't allow modification of the Mark object
(anymore) which leads to a new exception being raised, instead of
reporting the original exception.
As the original exception is not needed in other places anymore, we
don't have to modify it at all and can just compute the right line
number when reporting the error via ansible-test.
Fixes: #75837
* Add test for invalid module doc YAML syntax.

* background threads writing to stdout/stderr can cause children to deadlock if a thread in the parent holds the internal lock on the BufferedWriter wrapper
* prevent writes to std handles during fork by monkeypatching stdout/stderr during display startup to require a mutex lock with fork(); this ensures no background threads can hold the lock during a fork operation
* add integration test that fails reliably on Linux without this fix
