Dag Wieers eae0aa0592 Automatically stuff reference in commit message (#36844)
* Automatically stuff reference in commit message

So we probably want to track which edits were performed through the
Github interface, and this change automatically adds a label to the
commit message.

```yaml
<!--- Your description here -->

+label: docsite_pr
```

Eventually this allows to (on regular basis) list the changes from
documentation readers and process them in a separate process.

Dag Wieers 3b27d723fb Fix indentation of requirements (#36813)
Just discovered that the requirements were indented, whereas all other
lists were not. This makes them stand out for no good reason.

Dag Wieers 38abda544f Improve module docs wrt. required params (#36812)
So I am still not satisfied with how required parameters are being
displayed (before it was yes/no, then it became required/optional, and
only required).

Now it will display in small green 'required' under the parameter name.
This is more convenient, and provides more room for the description.
Especially on smaller screens.

Dag Wieers 974c50a417 Move notes higher up in order (#36815)
So people reading the module documentation usually look for parameters
first, and are interested in examples. However the notes are at the very
end even below the Return Values (the least interesting part).

So this change moves the notes higher up, below parameters, but before
examples so people at least see the notes.

Improve parameter required values and ref fix (#36680)
This PR includes:
- An improvement to the parameter listing, where instead of yes/no, it
  is indicated with required/optional (easier when scrolling through a
  long list of parameters)
- Ensure that module reference, eg. M(foobar) do not include the module

docsite: Add 'Edit on GitHub' for module docs (#36667)
This is something I always wanted, a 'Edit on GitHub' button for module
documentation.

I also removed the additional statement in the footer with instructions
on how to edit the module documentation.

PS The links go directly into the GitHub file editor now !

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()
```

Dag Wieers 1719267779 Sort arguments and return values in module docs
Comparing the old module docs, with the devel docs the
options/arguments/parameters are no longer sorted.

Also, both in the old module docs and the devel docs the result values
are not sorted where they probably should.

Adrian Likins da15cf1f54 Generate plugin rst (#28901)
Generate rst docs for plugins 

Based on rst generated for modules. But generated plugin
docs go into docs/docsite/rst/plugins/$PLUGIN_TYPE/plugin_name.rst
( docs/docsite/rst/plugins/connection/ssh.py for ex)

* move plugins docs to rst/*_plugins/ subdirs for namespace
* Only gen support pages for modules for now.
* Add generated plugin docs to gitignore* add list_*_plugins templates
* support MODULES/PLUGINS filters for make htmldocs

   Add a 'PLUGINS=ssh' filter env var like MODULES to filter plugins to build docs for.

* fixup 'historical' version_added, skip plugins/loader.py
* Fix plugins_by_support ref link to new plugins/*/ location
* use :ref: for common_return_values, allow empty version_added
* warnings on missing doc info
* add a prefix to _random_choice

* make template-file, output-dir, output format cli options for generate_man
* update main Makefile to use generate_man.py for docs (man pages and rst)
* update vault docs that use :option:
* Edits based on
6e34ea6242 and
a3afc78535

* add a optparse 'desc' to lib/ansible/cli/config.py 

  The man page needs a short desc for the 'NAME' field
  which it gets from the option parse 'desc' value.

  Fixes building ansible-config man page.

* add trim_docstring from pep257 to generate_man

  use pep258 docstring trim function to fix up any indention
  weirdness inherit to doc strings (ie, lines other than
  first line being indented.

* Add refs to cli command actions

To reference ansible-vaults --vault-id option, use:

:option:`The link text here <ansible-vault --vault-id>`

or:

:option:`--vault-id <ansible-vault --vault-id>`

To reference ansible-vault's 'encrypt' action, use:

:ref:`The link text here <ansible_vault_encrypt>`

or most of the time:

:ref:`ansible-vault encrypt <ansible_vault_encrypt>`

Andreas Maier b900f4a3be Fixed return table in module docs generated by plugin_formatter.py (#25329) (#25330)
This change fixes two issues with the generated return table:

1. When specifying a list of strings in the 'description' field of a
   return value, it shows them in Python list syntax on the resulting
   web page, e.g. `['a', 'b', 'c']`.
2. When specifying more than one line for the 'sample' field, the
   result table gets damaged in the HTML output.

In addition, this change re-arranges the HTML tags produced in the
generated RST file such that they line up nicely and can better be
checked by humans for completeness.
