Cleanup the hacking directory a bit (#81960)
* Clean up hacking/ansible-profile script

Also rename the script so it has a `.py` extension.

* Remove test-module symlink

Use the test-module.py script instead.

'Hacking' directory tools

env-setup

The 'env-setup' script modifies your environment to allow you to run ansible from a git checkout using python >= 3.10.

First, set up your environment to run from the checkout:

source ./hacking/env-setup

You will need some basic prerequisites installed. If you do not already have them and do not wish to install them from your operating system package manager, you can install them from pip

easy_install pip  # if pip is not already available
pip install -r requirements.txt

From there, follow ansible instructions on docs.ansible.com as normal.

test-module.py

'test-module.py' is a simple program that allows module developers (or testers) to run a module outside of the ansible program, locally, on the current machine.

Example:

./hacking/test-module.py -m lib/ansible/modules/command.py -a "echo hi"

This is a good way to insert a breakpoint into a module, for instance.

For more complex arguments such as the following yaml:

parent:
  child:
    - item: first
      val: foo
    - item: second
      val: boo

Use:

./hacking/test-module.py -m module \
  -a '{"parent": {"child": [{"item": "first", "val": "foo"}, {"item": "second", "val": "bar"}]}}'

return_skeleton_generator.py

return_skeleton_generator.py helps in generating the RETURNS section of a module. It takes JSON output of a module provided either as a file argument or via stdin.
