Due to the takeover of freenode we're moving to a different irc network. (#74775)
* 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

Update developing_inventory.rst (#73931)
* Update developing_inventory.rst

hashes/dictionaries in JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) are represented by what JSON calls "objects", so use that established terminology instead of "hash", "dictionary", or "hash/dictionary" etc.

* Update docs/docsite/rst/dev_guide/developing_inventory.rst

Make cache adjudicator's flush call plugin flush (#70987)
Change:
- Previously CachePluginAdjudicator#flush only removed entries from the
  cache backend that it knew about by using them earlier. Now it calls
  the underlying plugin's flush() method.

Test Plan:
- New unit tests

Tickets:
- Fixes #68770

Fix inventory cache interface (#50446)
* Replace InventoryFileCacheModule with a better developer-interface

Use new interface for inventory plugins with backwards compatibility

Auto-update the backing cache-plugin if the cache has changed after parsing the inventory plugin

* Update CacheModules to use the config system and add a deprecation warning if they are being imported directly rather than using cache_loader

* Fix foreman inventory caching

* Add tests

* Add integration test to check that fact caching works normally with cache plugins using ansible.constants and inventory caching provides a helpful error for non-compatible cache plugins

* Add some developer documentation for inventory and cache plugins

* Add user documentation for inventory caching

* Add deprecation docs

* Apply suggestions from docs review

* Add changelog

Richard Diphoorn ad549e375a Changed 'Control Machine' to 'Control Node' (#51696)
* Changed 'Control Machine' to 'Control Node' in the documentation. Changing the term 'Control Machine' to 'Control Node', to be in line with the basic concepts here: https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/network/getting_started/basic_concepts.html

Also for both entities; Control/Managed using the same common denominator 'Node' brings consistency.

* Updated reference links to new term.
