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.

Dag Wieers baf0ad2309 Docs: Add a "seealso" section to the module docs (#45949)
* Docs: Add a separate  "seealso" section to the module docs
to list related modules and/or related references. This clears up the notes
section for things that are actual notes.

So you can add a section in your module documentation and four types of
references are possible.

    seealso:

    # Reference by module name
    - module: aci_tenant

    # Reference by module name, including description
    - module: aci_tenant
      description: ACI module to create tenants on a Cisco ACI fabric.

    # Reference by rST documentation anchor
    - ref: aci_guide
      description: Detailed information on how to manage your ACI infrastructure using Ansible.

    # Reference by Internet resource
    - name: APIC Management Information Model reference
      description: Complete reference of the APIC object model.
      link: https://developer.cisco.com/docs/apic-mim-ref/

This PR also includes:

- Implements ansible-doc support
- Implements schema support for the seealso options
- Updates to the development documentation
- Rename filter convert_symbols_to_format to rst_ify, cfr the existing html_ify and tty_ify filters
  - This makes the existing template a lot easier to read and fixes the confusion I had myself rereading the template (again).
- We fixed the possible suboption types (which was limited to 'bool' only)

Module deprecation: docs, scheme and tests (#34100)
Enforce module deprecation.
After module has reached the end of it's deprecation cycle we will replace it with a docs stub.

* Replace deprecated modules with docs-only sub
* Use of deprecated past deprecation cycle gives meaningful message (see examples below)
* Enforce documentation.deprecation dict via `schema.py`
* Update `ansible-doc` and web docs to display documentation.deprecation
* Document that structure in `dev_guide`
* Ensure that all modules starting with `_` have a `deprecation:` block
* Ensure `deprecation:` block is only used on modules that start with `_`
* `removed_in` A string which represents when this module needs **deleting**
* CHANGELOG.md and porting_guide_2.5.rst list removed modules as well as alternatives
* CHANGELOG.md links to porting guide index

To ensure that meaningful messages are given to the user if they try to use a module at the end of it's deprecation cycle we enforce the module to contain:
```python
if __name__ == '__main__':
    removed_module()
```

Branko Majic f78baa1300 Implement ability to limit module documentation building (#24576)
* Implement ability to limit module documentation building:

- Added new option to plugin_formatter.py to support passing-in a list of
  modules for which the documentation should be built.
- Updated docuemtnation Makefile to allow specifying list of modules via
  environment variables (defaulting to all modules).
- Update instructions for building documentation and module development to
  include commands and description of limiting module documentation builds.

* Updated implementation for limiting module documentation building:

- Pass list of modules (or None) to list_modules function instead of string.
- Move conversion of module list to argument parsing code.
- No special keywords. Default ("") means build all modules. For no modules just
  specify non-existing module name.
- Updated documentation to reflect the changes.

* Updated implementation for limiting module documentation building:

- Use better default value, and don't treat "" as special case.
- Conditionally invoke different variants of command in Makefile instead of
  using special value "".

* Minor edits
