* Add dnf and yum commands in "Installation" section

Even though the command is very simple, it's good to be able to c&p it.
There were already commands for apt, emerge, pip, even direct installation
from git, so adding Fedora/RHEL/CentOS examples is reasonable.

Since yum is not installed by default on any supported Fedora releases
(F26 and F28 currently), recommend dnf.

Brian Coca 41685fb516 fix precedence issue with facts and vars (#32302)
avoid making gathered facts high precedence, only set_fact is supposed to be.
vars set via set_fact with cacheable are higher precedence than plain facts.

Previously (after 6fbd0a8bb5) regular facts would end up with a
higher precedence than host or play vars, but they should not be. Facts were getting added to 'non_persistent_facts' (equivalent to 'register' vars) which is higher precedence than facts should be.

added 'cacheable set_facts' to precedence docs

'ansible_facts_cacheable' ->  '_ansible_facts_cacheable' (made 'private')

So there is a discrepancy between the dev guide and what has been changed on disk by toshio.
Not a big deal, but needlessly confusing.

Dag Wieers 31e7d735a3 win_environment: Make this the Windows reference module
As discussed before we selected win_environment to the documentation,
and point to win_uri for a more advanced module.

If we want to make this the reference module, we have to get this one
absolutely right in every possible way.

This PR cleans up both win_environment and win_uri, and makes the
required changes to the windows module development section.

Austin S. Hemmelgarn d5ae9d1018 Fix build on Python 3.x by using sys.maxsize. (#30424)
As outlined in https://docs.python.org/3.1/whatsnew/3.0.html#integers,
sys.maxint doesn't exist anymore in Python 3.x because there is no maximum
value for integers in Python 3.x.  sys.maxsize is present in all
versions of Python that are currently supported by Ansible, so use that
instead as an arbitrarily large index value.

Fixes the following build error when building with Python 3.x:
make -j1 docs
mkdir -p ./docs/man/man1/ ; \
PYTHONPATH=./lib docs/bin/generate_man.py --template-file=docs/templates/man.j2 --output-dir=docs/man/man1/ --output-format man lib/ansible/cli/*.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "docs/bin/generate_man.py", line 253, in <module>
    allvars[cli_name] = opts_docs(cli_class_name, cli_name)

Adrian Likins da15cf1f54 Generate plugin rst (#28901)
Generate rst docs for plugins 

Based on rst generated for modules. But generated plugin
docs go into docs/docsite/rst/plugins/$PLUGIN_TYPE/plugin_name.rst
( docs/docsite/rst/plugins/connection/ssh.py for ex)

* move plugins docs to rst/*_plugins/ subdirs for namespace
* Only gen support pages for modules for now.
* Add generated plugin docs to gitignore* add list_*_plugins templates
* support MODULES/PLUGINS filters for make htmldocs

   Add a 'PLUGINS=ssh' filter env var like MODULES to filter plugins to build docs for.

* fixup 'historical' version_added, skip plugins/loader.py
* Fix plugins_by_support ref link to new plugins/*/ location
* use :ref: for common_return_values, allow empty version_added
* warnings on missing doc info
* add a prefix to _random_choice
  It was colliding with the target for random_choice plugin
