While implementing basic Ansible module testing I realised that the `self.module` used in some places is not actually a thing, and I changed to `my_module` to make it work as I understand it was expected.
This is a follow-up of previous years' 1a11cec and c8315bf. It deals
with links which at that point presumably either were not present or
did not support https://
* removes upper bound on sphinx version
* updates versions of docs build dependencies, adds known good requirements file
* adds instructions for using known_good_reqs file
Changed confusing wording. People new to ansible, like myself, have a hard time grocking what is a playbook and what is a task. I changed the name of the playbook to make it clearer.
* Due to the takeover of freenode we're moving to a different irc network.
* Our channels updated to point at the same channel name on libera.chat
* Some links went to webchat.freenode.net. At this time, libera.chat
doesn't point you to an official webchat client so I changed these to
https://libera.chat. (kiwi irc does work with libera.chat so that
could be another option).
* In general, I used the name irc.libera.net for link names and
https://libera.chat for link targets. This is because the irc service
is hosted on irc.libera.chat but the project web server is hosted on
libera.chat. (This appears to also be true for freenode but we were
using http://irc.freenode.net which doesn't seem to work. Oops).
* Removed http://irc.freenode.net from the linkcheck exceptions.
linkcheck was actually correct to flag that as invalid (should have
been http://frenode.net instead).
* Looks like hte important people in #yaml are now in libera.chat
* Link to where contributors should get help
Add a link target and then link to where contributors should get support
for developing groups of modules.
* Update docs/docsite/rst/dev_guide/developing_modules_in_groups.rst

Change:
- Make strategies behave consistently and return the empty string
instead of "UNKNOWN" (or "temporarystub") for the "before" value if
the permanent hostname file does not exist or could not be read.
- Switch to `with open()` instead of annoying exception handling code
(which was wrong and leaked file handles in several places). This
drops Python 2.4 support for this module.
- Updated porting guide since users could be relying on these former,
inconsistent values.

It is not clear that you can publish without configuring an ansible.cfg. The `--token` can be displayed with the `ansible-galaxy collection publish -h`
* docs: Update Python 2 doc links

* Remove PyCrypto from setup.py and packaging script
* Remove mention of pycrpto from installation docs
* Remove PyCrypto from vault
* Remove pycryto constraint and unit test requirement
* Remove PyCrypto tests from unit tests
* Add docs and fix warning message
* Remove section about cryptography library in Ansible Vault docs
The URLs to the Jinja website have moved, seemingly because of the renaming from `master` to `main` (hence from `master` to `latest` in the doc). This commit fixes that.
* For long-running playbooks, discourage users from using
`ansible_date_time`. Use `pipe` or `now` as an alternative.
* Review comments

Improve the documentation for regex_search by adding a few more
realistic examples such as showing how to extract only parts of a
string by using regex groups.
Extend regex_findall and regex_replace by an example that includes
the multiline and ignorecase parameters.
Fixes#74255
* Fix call to 'unique(case_sensitive=False)' triggering error when falling back to Ansible's version which **is** case-sensitive
* Test multiple situations of 'unique' filter errors with fallback not handling specific parameters

Changed FAQ examples to conform with the Jinja documentation:
If both values on either side of a plus/+ are numbers, they will be added whereas using "~" will convert all operands into strings and then concatenate them. Closes#73799.
* Add ArgumentSpecValidator to docs
* Improve docs for ArgumentSpecValidator
* Document removal of private methods
* Update module_utils documentation
- Add docs for argument spec classes as well as validation and parameters files.
- preserve the order in the source for errors.py
- document DEFAULT_TYPE_VALIDATORS so it can be referenced elsewhere
- fix automodule directive for validation.py
* Update docs in arg_spec and paremeters
- This improves the generated documentation.
* Document breaking changes in porting guide.
* Update formatting in porting guide and add a Deprecated section
* Fine tune module_utils documentation
* Move instance docstring to the __init__ method
Remove optional description since it fails the sanity test and I am not 100% it is valid anyway.
* Remoe incorrect parameter from docstring
This was changed a while ago but wasn't removed from the docstring.
* Use attr rather than attribute
The py:attribute: domain only exists in newer Sphinx >= 3.1.
* Improve documentation on exceptions
* Final pass
- use args/kwargs instead of param
- fix formatting errors that didn't display examples correctly
- format TypeErrors so they are referenced as classes
- specify complex types
Document that users must pass `allow_unsafe=True` as an option in the lookup to allow templating, with a note about security implications.
