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

Guide users to use ansible-runner (#71063)
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.

Refactor Python API examples and docs
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.

Sviatoslav Sydorenko 8d97c8c222 Fix the internal Python API usage examples
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.

* 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.

* Make sure that deprecate() is not called with both date and version.

* Forgot to remove no longer necessary formatting.

* Adjust order of warnings in C# code.

* Adjust unrelated test.

* Fix grammar (and make that test pass).

* Don't parse date, and adjust message to be same as in #67684.

* Sanity tests: disable date in past test.

* 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.

* Avoid crashing when 'name' isn't there.

* Linting.

* Update lib/ansible/module_utils/csharp/Ansible.Basic.cs

* 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.

Ansible.Basic - Added deprecated_aliases (#66323) 5 years ago
kaorihinata 3ca4580cb4 Allow no_log=False to silence the no_log warnings for module parameters (#64733)
As AnsibleModule._log_invocation is currently implemented, any parameter
with a name that matches PASSWORD_MATCH triggers the no_log warning as a
precaution against parameters that may contain sensitive data, but have not
been marked as sensitive by the module author.

This patch would allow module authors to explicitly mark the aforementioned
parameters as not sensitive thereby bypassing an erroneous warning message,
while still catching parameters which have not been marked at all by the
author.

Adds tests for various no_log states including True, False, and None (as
extracted by AnsibleModule._log_invocation) when applied to an argument with
a name that matches PASSWORD_MATCH.

Fixes for validate-modules import handling. (#63932)
* Fix validate-modules support for collections.

- Relative imports now work correctly.
- The collection loader is now used.
- Modules are invoked as `__main__`.

* Remove obsolete validate-modules code ignores.

* Handle sys.exit in validate-modules.

* Add check for AnsibleModule initialization.

* Remove `missing-module-utils-import` check.

This check does not support relative imports or collections.

Instead of trying to overhaul the test, we can rely on the `ansible-module-not-initialized` test instead.

* Fix badly named error codes with `c#` in the name.

The `#` conflicts with comments in the sanity test ignore files.

* Add changelog entries.
