* Introduce new "required_by' argument_spec option
This PR introduces a new **required_by** argument_spec option which allows you to say *"if parameter A is set, parameter B and C are required as well"*.
- The difference with **required_if** is that it can only add dependencies if a parameter is set to a specific value, not when it is just defined.
- The difference with **required_together** is that it has a commutative property, so: *"Parameter A and B are required together, if one of them has been defined"*.
As an example, we need this for the complex options that the xml module provides. One of the issues we often see is that users are not using the correct combination of options, and then are surprised that the module does not perform the requested action(s).
This would be solved by adding the correct dependencies, and mutual exclusives. For us this is important to get this shipped together with the new xml module in Ansible v2.4. (This is related to bugfix https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/28657)

This reverts commit 63279823a7.
Flawed on many levels
* Adds poor API to a public function
* Papers over the fact that the public function is doing something bad
by catching exceptions it cannot handle in the first place
* Papers over the real cause of the issue which is a bug in the timeout
decorator
* Doesn't reraise properly
* Catches the wrong exception
Fixes#49824Fixes#49817
* Make the timeout decorator properly raise an exception outside of the function's scope
signal handlers which raise exceptions will never work well because the
exception can be raised anywhere in the called code. This leads to
exception race conditions where the exceptions could end up being
hanlded by unintended pieces of the called code.
The timeout decorator was using just that idiom. It was especially bad
because the decorator syntactically occurs outside of the called code
but because of the signal handler, the exception was being raised inside
of the called code.
This change uses a thread instead of a signal to manage the timeout in
parallel to the execution of the decorated function. Since raising of
the exception happens inside of the decorator, now, instead of inside of
a signal handler, the timeout exception is raised from outside of the
called code as expected which makes reasoning about where exceptions are
to be expected intuitive again.
Fixes#43884
* Add a common case test.
Adding an integration test driven from our unittests. Most of the time
we'll timeout in run_command which is running things in a subprocess.
Create a test for that specific case in case anything funky comes up
between threading and execve.
* Don't use OSError-based TimeoutError as a base class
Unlike most standard exceptions, OSError has a specific parameter list
with specific meanings. Instead follow the example of other stdlib
functions, concurrent.futures and multiprocessing and define a separate
TimeoutException.
* Add comment and docstring to point out that this is not hte Python3 TimeoutError
When there are spaces in command args passed as a list,
then run_command and underlying subprocess fails.
This can be overcome by passing command as string rather than list.

Python sets the SIGPIPE handler to SIG_IGN. On execv() signal handlers are
reset to their defaults, EXCEPT those that are SIG_IGN which are left ignored.
In Python 3 subprocess.popen explicitly resets the SIGPIPE handler to SIG_DFL,
but unfortunately in Python 2.7 it does not. This leads to subprocesses being
executed with SIGPIPE ignored. This is often a problem with bash scripts which
rely on SIGPIPE to terminate commands in a pipe, but can easily be a problem
with other applications.
This implements the Python 3 behaviour for Python 2.7 by using a preexec_fn.

Now that we don't need to worry about python-2.4 and 2.5, we can make
some improvements to the way AnsiballZ handles modules.
* Change AnsiballZ wrapper to use import to invoke the module
We need the module to think of itself as a script because it could be
coded as:
main()
or as:
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
Or even as:
if __name__ == '__main__':
random_function_name()
A script will invoke all of those. Prior to this change, we invoked
a second Python interpreter on the module so that it really was
a script. However, this means that we have to run python twice (once
for the AnsiballZ wrapper and once for the module). This change makes
the module think that it is a script (because __name__ in the module ==
'__main__') but it's actually being invoked by us importing the module
code.
There's three ways we've come up to do this.
* The most elegant is to use zipimporter and tell the import mechanism
that the module being loaded is __main__:
* 5959f11c9d/lib/ansible/executor/module_common.py (L175)
* zipimporter is nice because we do not have to extract the module from
the zip file and save it to the disk when we do that. The import
machinery does it all for us.
* The drawback is that modules do not have a __file__ which points
to a real file when they do this. Modules could be using __file__
to for a variety of reasons, most of those probably have
replacements (the most common one is to find a writable directory
for temporary files. AnsibleModule.tmpdir should be used instead)
We can monkeypatch __file__ in fom AnsibleModule initialization
but that's kind of gross. There's no way I can see to do this
from the wrapper.
* Next, there's imp.load_module():
* https://github.com/abadger/ansible/blob/340edf7489/lib/ansible/executor/module_common.py#L151
* imp has the nice property of allowing us to set __name__ to
__main__ without changing the name of the file itself
* We also don't have to do anything special to set __file__ for
backwards compatibility (although the reason for that is the
drawback):
* Its drawback is that it requires the file to exist on disk so we
have to explicitly extract it from the zipfile and save it to
a temporary file
* The last choice is to use exec to execute the module:
* https://github.com/abadger/ansible/blob/f47a4ccc76/lib/ansible/executor/module_common.py#L175
* The code we would have to maintain for this looks pretty clean.
In the wrapper we create a ModuleType, set __file__ on it, read
the module's contents in from the zip file and then exec it.
* Drawbacks: We still have to explicitly extract the file's contents
from the zip archive instead of letting python's import mechanism
handle it.
* Exec also has hidden performance issues and breaks certain
assumptions that modules could be making about their own code:
http://lucumr.pocoo.org/2011/2/1/exec-in-python/
Our plan is to use imp.load_module() for now, deprecate the use of
__file__ in modules, and switch to zipimport once the deprecation
period for __file__ is over (without monkeypatching a fake __file__ in
via AnsibleModule).
* Rename the name of the AnsiBallZ wrapped module
This makes it obvious that the wrapped module isn't the module file that
we distribute. It's part of trying to mitigate the fact that the module
is now named __main)).py in tracebacks.
* Shield all wrapper symbols inside of a function
With the new import code, all symbols in the wrapper become visible in
the module. To mitigate the chance of collisions, move most symbols
into a toplevel function. The only symbols left in the global namespace
are now _ANSIBALLZ_WRAPPER and _ansiballz_main.

* Only add exception/traceback on Python 3
On Python 2 the traceback could be any exception from the stack frame
and likely unrelated to the fail_json call.
On Python 3 the traceback is cleared outside any exception frame, so the
call always returns the most inner traceback (if any), and therefor is
most likely related to the fail_json call.
* Add uncertainty to traceback on Python 2
On Python 2 the last exception in the stack frame is being returned,
this could be unrelated to the actual error, especially if fail_json()
is called outside an except: block.
* Fix tmpdir on non root become
- also avoid exception if tmpdir and remote_tmp are None
- give 'None' on deescalation so tempfile will fallback to it's default behaviour
and use system dirs
- fix issue with bad tempdir (not existing/not createable/not writeable)
i.e nobody and ~/.ansible/tmp
- added tests for blockfile case

This reverts commit 5c614a59a6.
* changes based on PR feedback and changelog fragment
* changes based on the review
* Fix tmpdir when makedirs failed so we just use the system tmp
* Let missing remote_tmp fail
If remote_tmp is missing then there's something more basic wrong in the
communication from the controller to the module-side. It's better to
be alerted in this case than to silently ignore it.
jborean and I have independently checked what happens if the user sets
ansible_remote_tmp to empty string and !!null and both cases work fine.
(null is turned into a default value controller-side. empty string
triggers the warning because it is probably not a directory that the
become user is able to use).
* create module tmpdir based on remote_tmp
* Source remote_tmp from controller if possible
* Fixed sanity test and not use lambda
* Added expansion of env vars to the remote tmp
* Fixed sanity issues
* Added note around shell remote_tmp option

the functions we're going to break this up into.
* Rework the parameters so things that are in file_common_args are used
from file_common_args or the reason for deviation is documented.
* Remove validate as a parameter: this should be taken care of by
removing it from params before the copy and template action plugin
invoke file.
* Rename diff_peek to _diff_peek as it is an internal parameter.

* 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.
