* adds new error AnsibleModuleExit to handle module returns
* adds new action plugin network for attaching connection to network modules
* adds new shared module local to receive connection
* splits out function to update task_args with common updates
This commit provides a mechansim for running local modules that require
a connection object for interative commands tyically implemented for
network devices. It provides a way to locally import modules (post fork)
and run them using exception handling to exit.
We couldn't copy to_unicode, to_bytes, to_str into module_utils because
of licensing. So once created it we had two sets of functions that did
the same things but had different implementations. To remedy that, this
change removes the ansible.utils.unicode versions of those functions.
* Can be configured in the ansible.cfg for tasks/handlers individually
* If an included filename contains no vars or loops, it will be expanded
in-place as if it were marked as static
If you convert the error string to bytes and embed it inside another
error string, you get
Prefix:
b'Embedded\nerror\nstring'
which is not what we want.
But we also don't want Unicode in error messages causing unexpected
UnicodeEncodeErrors when on Python 2.
So let's convert the error message into the native string type (bytes on
Python 2, unicode on Python 3).
