* add tests for fail filter
also tests that fail does not block inspectability
* add fail filter
fallback message is a bit clunky,
since you can't invoke a filter without specifying an input.
That is, "{{ fail }}" doesn't work,
so you have to do "{{ None | fail }}"
* document 'fail' filter
* add changelog fragment
* fail filter uses default message on Undefined or emptystring
makes it slightly easier to use the default message:
```diff
- "{{ None | fail }}"
+ "{{ '' | fail }}"
```
and the user sees a slightly more relevant message
if the message itself is undefined:
```diff
- The error was: {{ failmsg | fail }}: 'failmsg' is undefined
+ The error was: {{ failmsg | fail }}: Mandatory variable has not been overridden
```
* rebuild as the builtin `Undefined`
* harmonise `hint` parameter for make_undefined with jinja
* use code block for documentation item
[ref](https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/75435#discussion_r707661035)
* rename to `undef` to expose less Python into the Jinja
[ref](https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/75435#pullrequestreview-757799031)
* explicitly instantiate undefined value now that it's possible
see I knew we would break something with reflection
* preserve test coverage of undefined variable

##### SUMMARY
When I used this example it complains with:
ERROR! The tasks/main.yml file for role 'myrole' must contain a list of tasks
The error appears to be in 'ansible/roles/myrole/tasks/main.yml': line 2, column 1, but may
be elsewhere in the file depending on the exact syntax problem.
The offending line appears to be:
---
tasks:
^ here
Removing "tasks:" fixes it.

This is a follow-up of previous years' 1a11cec and c8315bf. It deals
with links which at that point presumably either were not present or
did not support https://
Changed confusing wording. People new to ansible, like myself, have a hard time grocking what is a playbook and what is a task. I changed the name of the playbook to make it clearer.
* Due to the takeover of freenode we're moving to a different irc network.
* Our channels updated to point at the same channel name on libera.chat
* Some links went to webchat.freenode.net. At this time, libera.chat
doesn't point you to an official webchat client so I changed these to
https://libera.chat. (kiwi irc does work with libera.chat so that
could be another option).
* In general, I used the name irc.libera.net for link names and
https://libera.chat for link targets. This is because the irc service
is hosted on irc.libera.chat but the project web server is hosted on
libera.chat. (This appears to also be true for freenode but we were
using http://irc.freenode.net which doesn't seem to work. Oops).
* Removed http://irc.freenode.net from the linkcheck exceptions.
linkcheck was actually correct to flag that as invalid (should have
been http://frenode.net instead).
* Looks like hte important people in #yaml are now in libera.chat
* Link to where contributors should get help
Add a link target and then link to where contributors should get support
for developing groups of modules.
* Update docs/docsite/rst/dev_guide/developing_modules_in_groups.rst

The URLs to the Jinja website have moved, seemingly because of the renaming from `master` to `main` (hence from `master` to `latest` in the doc). This commit fixes that.
* For long-running playbooks, discourage users from using
`ansible_date_time`. Use `pipe` or `now` as an alternative.
* Review comments

Improve the documentation for regex_search by adding a few more
realistic examples such as showing how to extract only parts of a
string by using regex groups.
Extend regex_findall and regex_replace by an example that includes
the multiline and ignorecase parameters.
