* Explain what the Ansible Quickstart video does

Rewrote what video does. The video is really not teaching you how to do the work. It explains why you'd want to use Ansible and shows you what it takes (some sample code) . Video also introduces you to other products in the Ansible ecosystem.

Tina Müller (tinita) 57d5b8642a Add examples to YAMLSyntax; fix minor issues and improve wording (#35703)
* Add examples to YAMLSyntax; fix minor issues and improve wording

I added proper titles to "Flow Collections" and "Block Scalars", because these
are official YAML Terms, so people can find better help when having issues.

I changed the "ignored newlines" to "folded newlines" because I think ignoring
gives a wrong impression, especially since empty lines (more than one newline)
are not ignored and have a special meaning.

I added an example how to enforce a newline in a folded block scalar.

I fixed the list of characters that are allowed/not allowed in plain and
double quoted scalars.

I added the #yaml channel to the IRC link.

I added links to the YAML Specs. For completeness, I also included YAML 1.2,
although PyYAML and libyaml currently implement 1.1.

* Improve wording

* Add three more characters to forbidden first characters

VMware: Deprecate vsphere_guest module (#35648)
This change deprecates vsphere_guest in favor of vmware_guest and other
related modules.

The major reasons behind deprecation are -

- Pysphere - Unofficial Python bindings of vCenter deprecated in the year 2013.
- VMware provides official Python bindings for vCenter, which is used in vmware_guest.
- vcsim - simulator used in integration testing of vmware module does not support PySphere
  APIs, which makes it more difficult to test vsphere_guest.

Please see [deprecation plan](https://github.com/ansible/community/wiki/VMware%3A-vsphere_guest_deprecation)

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()
```

* allow shells to have per host options, remote_tmp

added language to shell
removed module lang setting from general as  plugins have it now
use get to avoid bad powershell plugin
more resilient tmp discovery, fall back to `pwd`
add shell to docs
fixed options for when frags are only options
added shell set ops in t_e and fixed option frags
normalize tmp dir usag4e

- pass tmpdir/tmp/temp options as env var to commands, making it default for tempfile
- adjusted ansiballz tmpdir
- default local tempfile usage to the configured local tmp
- set env temp in action

add options to powershell
shift temporary to internal envvar/params
ensure tempdir is set if we pass var
ensure basic and url use expected tempdir
ensure localhost uses local tmp
give /var/tmp priority, less perms issues
more consistent tempfile mgmt for ansiballz
made async_dir configurable
better action handling, allow for finally rm tmp
fixed tmp issue and no more tempdir in ballz
hostvarize world readable and admin users
always set shell tempdir
added comment to discourage use of exception/flow control

* Mostly revert expand_user as it's not quite working.

This was an additional feature anyhow.

Kept the use of pwd as a fallback but moved it to a second ssh
connection.  This is not optimal but getting that to work in a single
ssh connection was part of the problem holding this up.

(cherry picked from commit 395b714120522f15e4c90a346f5e8e8d79213aca)
