Update the docs to guide users to use `ansible-runner` instead of using Python API directly. In many use cases, executing Ansible playbooks are sufficient. In those use cases, `ansible-runner` is easier and much stable to use comparing with Python API, but there is no mention of it.
* document how to migrate between collections

* Also validate top-level version_added.
* Fix error code.
* Produce same version_added validation error in schema than in code (and stop returning it twice).

* Add changelog.
* Fix forgotten closing braket.
* Accept 'historical' for some top-level version_added.
PR #70446: it's a follow-up for #70445.
It includes a merge of `examples/scripts/uptime.py` and a similar
code snippet from `docs/docsite/rst/dev_guide/developing_api.rst`.
This patch also changes the docs RST file to include contents of
the example file instead of holding a copy of a similar code.
* Format using `` instead of `, add line breaks for long lines, rephrase or remove useless text.
Move some text.
* Add clearer version of OpenSSh is affected by SCP bug
* Review some pages using ansible doc writing guide.
* Add type for options in the sample module shown in Developing Modules, as this is required to have the tests being
green
* Remove duplicated strings: the same sentence is in "Python tips" and "Module security", keeping the
latter.
Previous version initialized the `TaskQueueManager` after calling
`Play.load()` while advertising a way to inject a custom library
location path. This caused the tasks loader not to find any custom
modules because it was triggered before the path was actually added
to the module loader.
This patch changes the order of the operations to ensure that the
customized `context.CLIARGS` actually influences things.
Resolves https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/69758.
If a local module has no documentation, the doc command will fail without any hints of what is wrong. Add another way to confirm the presence of a local module.

Replace the ansible-base changelog linting and generation tool with antsibull-changelog and make it available for linting collections. Previously changelog linting was limited to ansible-base.
* Allow to specify collection_name separately for deprecation.
* Use new functionality in Ansible.
* Use new functionality in tests.
* Update tagging/untagging functions.
* Update pylint deprecated sanity test.
* Update validate-modules. Missing are basic checks for version_added (validate semantic version format for collections).
* Improve version validation. Re-add version_added validation.
* Make sure collection names are added to return docs before schema validation.
* Extra checks to avoid crashes on bad data.
* Make C# module utils code work, and update/extend tests.
* Add changelog fragment.
* Stop extracting collection name from potentially tagged versions/dates.
* Simplify C# code.
* Update Windows modules docs.
* Forgot semicolons.
* starting metadata sunset

* Enable installing collections from git repositories
* Add tests for installing individual and multiple collections from git repositories

Update the changelog and document the supported keys and allowed values for the type.
Add a note that the collection(s) in the repo must contain a galaxy.yml
* Add a warning about embedding credentials in SCM URLs
* Update with review suggestions
* suppress sanity compile failure for Python 2.6
* Track collection for version_added.
Validate *all* version numbers in validate-modules.
For tagged version numbers (i.e. version_added), consider source collection to chose validation.
* Make tagging/untagging functions more flexible.
* Tag all versions in doc fragments.
* Tag all deprecation versions issued by code.
* Make Display.deprecated() understand tagged versions.
* Extend validation to enforce tagged version numbers.
* Tag versions in tests.
* Lint and fix test.
* Mention collection name in collection loader's deprecation/removal messages.
* Fix error IDs.
* Handle tagged dates in Display.deprecated().
* Also require that removed_at_date and deprecated_aliases.date are tagged.
* Also automatically tag/untag removed_at_date; fix sanity module removal version check.
* Improve error message when invalid version number is used (like '2.14' in collections).
* Allow to deprecate options and aliases by date instead of only by version.
* Update display.deprecate().
* Adjust behavior to conform to tested behavior, extend tests, and improve C# style.
* Parse date and fail on invalid date.
This is mainly to make sure that people start using invalid dates, and we eventually have a mess to clean up.
* C# code: improve validation and update/extend tests.
* Make sure that deprecate() is not called with both date and version.
* Forgot to remove no longer necessary formatting.

* Validate-modules: validate ISO 8601 date format.
* Validate-modules: switch schema declaration for deprecated_aliases to improve error messages for invalid dates.
* Use DateTime instead of string for date deprecation.
* Validate that date in deprecated_aliases is actually a DateTime.
* Fix tests.
* Fix rebasing error.
* Adjust error codes for pylint, and add removed_at_date and deprecated_aliases.date checks to validate-modules.
* Make deprecation date in the past error codes optional.
* Make sure not both version and date are specified for AnsibleModule.deprecate() calls.
* Stop using Python 3.7+ API.
* Make sure errors are actually reported. Re-add 'ansible-' prefix.

* Adjust test to latest change.
* Prefer date over version if both end up in Display.deprecated().

For instance, you should use `community.vmware.vmware_guest` instead of just
`vmware_guest`.
This way, the examples don't depend on the `collections` directive of the
playbook.

* remove azure extras and extras_require support
* Since Azure will be collectionized, the requirements will float more frequently than Ansible releases; the Azure collection needs to host the requirements now.
* Removed the dynamic extras support as well, since Azure was the only thing using it. If we need it again, it's easy to pull back from history.
* Mark azure-requirements as orhpaned.
This keeps the docs around so that existing links from old test runs remain valid.
