Enforce module deprecation.
After module has reached the end of it's deprecation cycle we will replace it with a docs stub.
* Replace deprecated modules with docs-only sub
* Use of deprecated past deprecation cycle gives meaningful message (see examples below)
* Enforce documentation.deprecation dict via `schema.py`
* Update `ansible-doc` and web docs to display documentation.deprecation
* Document that structure in `dev_guide`
* Ensure that all modules starting with `_` have a `deprecation:` block
* Ensure `deprecation:` block is only used on modules that start with `_`
* `removed_in` A string which represents when this module needs **deleting**
* CHANGELOG.md and porting_guide_2.5.rst list removed modules as well as alternatives
* CHANGELOG.md links to porting guide index
To ensure that meaningful messages are given to the user if they try to use a module at the end of it's deprecation cycle we enforce the module to contain:
```python
if __name__ == '__main__':
removed_module()
```
Made the following changes:
* Removed wildcard imports
* Replaced long form of GPL header with short form
* Removed get_exception usage
* Added from __future__ boilerplate
* Adjust division operator to // where necessary
For the following files:
* web_infrastructure modules
* system modules
* linode, lxc, lxd, atomic, cloudscale, dimensiondata, ovh, packet,
profitbricks, pubnub, smartos, softlayer, univention modules
* compat dirs (disabled as its used intentionally)
* Mutually reference Windows and non-Windows modules
To make it easier for Windows or non-Windows users to find the relevant
module information, we are mutually referencing both variants in their
documentation.
We are also adding a special note if a module works on both Windows and
non-Windows targets.

* Replace 'look at' with 'use', as requested

Changes to the metadata format were approved here:
https://github.com/ansible/proposals/issues/54

* Changes to metadata-tool to account for new metadata
* Add GPL license header
* Add upgrade subcommand to upgrade metadata version
* Change default metadata to the new format
* Fix exclusion of non-modules from the metadata report
* Fix ansible-doc for new module metadata
* Exclude metadata version from ansible-doc output
* Fix website docs generation for the new metadata
* Update metadata schema in valiate-modules test
* Update the metadata in all modules to the new version
allows user to force persistent connection to close, needed for when
you want to benefit from changes applied to the current play but persistent connections
prevent them from being realized.
* Change example syntax on nxos_feature module
* Change example syntax on nxos_hsrp module
* Change example syntax on nxos_igmp module
* Change example syntax on nxos_interface module
* Change example syntax on nxos_interface_ospf module
* Change example syntax on nxos_ip_interface module
* Change example syntax on nxos_ping module
* Change example syntax on nxos_switchport module
* Change example syntax on nxos_vlan module
* Change example syntax on nxos_vrf module
* Change example syntax on nxos_vrf_interface module
* Change example syntax on nxos_vrrp module
* Change example syntax on meta module
* Change example syntax on set_fact module
* Change example syntax on win_copy module
* Change example syntax on win_file module
* Change example syntax on win_get_url module
Remove escaping of \ characeter in Windows paths since it's no longer required for single quoted or unquoted values when using multi-line YAML syntax.
* Change example syntax on win_lineinfile module
* Change example syntax on win_msi module
* Change example syntax on win_stat module
* Remove nxos_bgp example from nxos_igmp module
* Mark examples as regexp to avoid syntax error
* Cleanup win_copy.py examples
* Cleanup win_file.py examples
* Remove quotes in win_get_url.py examples
* Cleanup quotes and languare in win_lineinfile.py
* Cleanup examples in win_group.py
* Cleanup examples in win_service.py
* Don't use : in documentation because it breaks the YAML syntax check
* Cleanup win_copy.py examples
* Cleanup win_copy.py examples
* Minor change to fix test failure
* Use single quotes
* Fix docs to specify when python2.6+ is required (due to a library
dep). This helps us know when it is okay to use python2.6+ syntax in
the file.
* remove BabyJson returns. See #1211 This commit fixes all but the
openstack modules.
* Use if __name__ == '__main__' to only run the main part of the module
if the module is run as a program. This allows for the potential to
unittest the code later.
