Lars Kellogg-Stedman 220d224433 add note regarding {host,group}_vars directory lookup semantics (#48066)
* add note regarding {host,group}_vars directory lookup semantics

While the 'ansible-playbook' command will look for {host,group}_vars in
both the playbook and inventory directories, the 'ansible' command
will only look in the inventory directory. This follows from a close
reading of the documentation but isn't explicit and leads to the
perhaps unexpected result that you can run both commands with the same
configuration in the same directory and get different results.

This commit adds a note to the documentation making the difference in
behavior explicit.

Closes #48065

* incorporates bcoca feedback

Peter Sprygada 1e68881c40 adds support for null values to the ternary filter (#45303)
* adds support for null values to the ternary filter

This change adds a third optional argument to the ternary filter to
handle a null value.  If the third option is specified null and false
are treated differently.

For instance, take the following example:

{{ enabled | ternary('no shutdown', 'shutdown') }}

If enabled == True, then 'no shutdown' is used.
If enabled in (False, None), then 'shutdown' is used.

With this change the following is possible:

{{ enabled | ternary('no shutdown', 'shutdown', omit) }}

If enabled == True, then 'no shutdown'
If enabled == False, then 'shutdown'
If enabled == None, then omit

Markus Suonto 0d81386144 Add single quotes around package name (#45152)
<!--- Your description here -->
`pip install ansible[azure]` results in `zsh: no matches found: ansible[azure]` at least in my computer (zsh on Ubuntu). I don't know if it is the case with all shells, but at least for me it is. Since square brackets `[]` are special characters in bash, I propose adding single quotes to make sure that package name is always interpreted as literal. The same error is also resolvable by setting noglob.

James Polley 7988266bb7 Improve clarity of precedence when command-line parameters are used. (#39059)
* Improve clarity of precedence when command-line parameters are used.

* Add command-line values into the precedence list.
* Several sample config snippets were included without any explanation
  of how those snippets would be processed. Added descriptions so that
  the reader can understand what each snippet will (or won't) accomplish.

* Don't focus on inventory as much

Expand on the fact that it's the fact that a variable is set that
matters, not the source of the variable.
