* 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.

(cherry picked from commit 40ce448657)
The current author line wants to match a github author id. But
some people, including the OpenStack project, do not use github,
and additionally do not claim individual ownership but instead
group ownership.
Since there are already a couple of hard-coded examples in the
regex, just add one more. Alternately we could come up with some
mechanism to indicate that the author is purposely not listing
a github id, but that seems a bit heavywight.
* config: singular ANSIBLE_COLLECTIONS_PATH
Every other *_PATH setting in ansible is singular, and the traditional
$PATH variable is also singular despite containing a list of
directories. Let's be consistent both internally and with POSIX
tradition.
* update all ANSIBLE_COLLECTIONS_PATHS env references to be singular
* deprecate plural ANSIBLE_COLLECTIONS_PATHS setting
* 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
- purged metadata from any requirements
- fix indent in generic handler for yaml content (whey metadata display was off)
- make more resilient against bad formed docs
- removed all metadata from docs template
- remove metadata from schemas
- removed mdata tests and from unrelated tests

* Work around strange behavior of StrictVersion and SemanticVersion constructors that they accept an falsy value.
* Do not accept empty strings as versions.
* 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 module by date in documentation.
* Make sure deprecation date/version match between module docs and meta/runtime.yml.
* Unrelated fix: don't compare deprecated module version to Ansible's version in collection.
* Allow documentation's removal version to be something else than fixed list of Ansible versions for collections.
* Linting.
* Allow to deprecate plugin options by date.
* Add changelog fragment for deprecation by date (also covers #68177).
* 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.
* 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

Left hand side slicing is confusing and slower but maybe more memory
efficient in some circumstances. There is one case where it adds to
code safety: when it's used to substitute a different list in place of a
slice of the original list and the original list could have been bound
to a different variable in some other code. (The most likely case of
this is when it's a global variable and some other code might import
that variable name).
Because of the confusion factor we think it should only be used for the
safety case or where it's been benchmarked and shown to have some sort
of documentatble improvement. At the moment, only one piece of code
falls into those categories so this PR removes all the other instances
of left hand side slicing.
* required_if checks should have three or four parts.
* Validate mutually_exclusive, required_together, required_one_of, required_if and required_by.
* Simplify code.
* Improve messages.
* Add changelog.
* Sanity check.
* Update docs.
* Update ignore.txt.
* Don't continue with tests when terms are not strings.
* Remove ignore.txt entry.
* Make sure validate-modules doesn't choke on things already flagged by schema test.
* Check required_if requirements list for strings.
* 'message' parameter is replaced by 'commit_message' in grafana_dashboard
* 'message' parameter is replaced by 'notification_message' in datadog_monitor
This change is required since 'message' as parameter name is used internally by
Ansible core engine.

PR #66898
This change introduces a new sanity check with code
`parameter-state-invalid-choice` in the `ansible-test sanity`
validator. It enforces modules not to support `list` or `info`
as their `state`.
