Reads the directory_mode param as 'raw' type to mirror the same behavior as mode.
This'll cause non-quoted values to be represented as an int, rather than a str.
Covered by 'assert recursive copied directories mode' test.
Fixes#24202
Recent Python3 versions require open() to specify binary mode if the data is anything other than text.
Python3: Use int() instead of long() in unarchive
Changes long() to int() for CRC values in the unarchive module. Affects unarchiving of zip files. Since CRC values in zipfile are 32 bits the behaviour should be unchanged even in Python 2.
* synchronize: Convert cmd to list and fix handling of the copy_links argument
Converting cmd from str to list stops the pain of argument quoting/escaping.
* synchronize: Update imports according to #pullrequestreview-28758614
This change to the template action plugin make template use the
platform's native newline_sequence for Jinja.
We also added the option `newline_sequence` to change the newline
sequence using by Jinja if you need to use another newline sequence than
the platform default.

This is the original iso_extract module from the ansible-provisioning project.
We are upstreaming all our modules, and this PR is part of that process.
* Avoid having module documentation links to itself
A lot of modules use M(own_module) in their documentation causing a link
in the documentation to itself.
* Make note more clear now
* Reminder that lookup(‘file’) can be used
Sometimes the block of text does not easily fit into a playbook, so this acts as a reminder (or a prompt for anyone who hasn't used this before) that the content could be stored in an separate file.
I've also included `backup: yes` as I think this is a good example of where a backup might be needed.

The following playbook:
```yaml
- hosts: localhost
tasks:
- file:
path: /tmp/non-existing-foo-bar
state: absent
recurse: yes
```
causes this error:
```
fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "failed": true, "msg": "recurse option requires state to be 'directory'", "path": "/tmp/non-existing-foo-bar", "state": "absent"}
```
The included fix ensures that when recurse is added, we no longer assume
it is a file, but accept that it is a directory.
when using "state: link", and particularly when using
"force: yes".
Symbolic link resolution can be expensive. In our case,
the symbolic links are legacy links to automounts, and
the "file" task was causing all of the legacy links to
be traversed and mounted on every host every time the
task executed, even when the links were correct and there
was nothing to do.
This change avoids the system calls that perform the
symbolic link resolution by taking advantage of the short
circuit behaviur of the boolean "and" operator. The code
behaviour is unchanged except that it no longer performs
unnecessary system calls.
As it turns out, this change is not sufficient to fully
solve the symbolic link resolution problem, as the "file"
module still performs a stat() at the end of execution to
provide the caller with information about the file.
However, this change is very simple, it will eliminate
unnecessary system calls in a number of use cases, and it
gets the "file" module closer to the desired end result.
Not all file-related modules consistently use "path" as the attribute to specify a single filename, some use "dest", others use "name". Most do have aliases for either "name" or "destfile".
This change makes "path" the default attribute for (single) file-related modules, but also adds "dest" and "name" as aliases, so that people can use a consistent way of attributing paths, but also to ensure backward compatibility with existing playbooks.
NOTE: The reason for changing this, is that it makes Ansible needlessly harder to use if you have to remember that e.g. the xattr module requires the name attribute, the lineinfile module requires a dest attribute, and the stat module requires a path attribute.

Sudoers is a great example to show how you can prevent shutting yourself
out. But SSHd is at least as important to avoid syntax errors causing a
lot of grieve. So I think it deserves a spot in this list :-)
- Adds the 'link' file_type for finding symbolic or hard links
- Use `os.lstat` instead of `os.stat` to prevent the following
of links when statting the file.
