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

Matt Clay 4f51b7d323 Remove ansible-test --tox delegation option.
Use the --venv option instead.

This option was only available when running from source to test the ansible/ansible repository.

This will have no effect on testing collections or running from an installed version of Ansible.

Also update docs to reference the --venv option instead of the --tox option.

Naming a module "something_module" is misleading (see below). Let's drop the "_module" part of the module name on the developing_modules_general page.

Made it much clearer for people to understand what to do.

Also removed the git command for creating branches, I believe a
develop should be aware of how basic git commands work.
