As discussed in full at https://github.com/datacenter/aci-ansible
we desired a better naming convention for ACI modules before they ship
with Ansible v2.4
The result is summarized in this PR.
The modules now also include the classes from the object model, as well
as a link to the documentation.
This PR includes:
- Removal of get_exception (sadly)
- Avoid deprecating 'state' parameter with aci_rest
- Small fix for querying using aci_rest
