* Fix FactCache to conform to the dict API
* update needs to take a dict rather than a key and a value
* __init__ needs to allow for setting the intial dictionary
* Remove unneeded _display and _cache attributes
* Move ansible.plugins.cache.FactCache to
ansible.vars.fact_cache.FactCache because this isn't part of the cache
plugin API.
* Add backwards compatibility when calling update on the new FactCache
* Remove code for calling old FactCache. There's no way to call the old
FactCache so there's no need for backwards compatible code for calling
code. Backwards compatibility is handling things which are calling
the new FactCache.
* Port our code to the new FactCache location.
* included inventory and callback in new config
allow inventory to be configurable
updated connection options settings
also updated winrm to work with new configs
removed now obsolete set_host_overrides
added notes for future bcoca, current one is just punting, it's future's problem
updated docs per feedback
added remove group/host methods to inv data
moved fact cache from data to constructed
cleaner/better options
fix when vars are added
extended ignore list to config dicts
updated paramiko connection docs
removed options from base that paramiko already handles
left the look option as it is used by other plugin types
resolve delegation
updated cache doc options
fixed test_script
better fragment merge for options
fixed proxy command
restore ini for proxy
normalized options
moved pipelining to class
updates for host_key_checking
restructured mixins
* fix typo
this was abandoned early on the manger side but seems like we left behind on plugin side.
more flexible extensions with yaml plugin
validate data correctly for yaml/constructed
fixed issue with only adding one child to keyed, the group only got the host that forced it's creation
fixes#31382fixes#31365
* updated docs
- for devs:
- added inventory/vars section
- made some updates to general section and other plugin types
- for users:
- added 'user' plugin section to start describing the plugins
- docs on types, what they are and how to use
- removed ref to deleted AUTHORS file
- corrected several typos/headers
- added descriptions to config.rst template
- ignore generated files for cli/plugins and config
- remove new generated files on `make clean`
- moved details from devguid and intro doc to plugin specific pages
- pretied up lookup notes
- changed precedence ref to not conflict config
- removed duplicate config data, as config is autogenerated and up to date
- put new plugins under playbooks
- added `pass` cause rst/python dislikes fractions
- removed dupe in .gitignore, alpha sorted to avoid moar dupes
- added try cause rst/python freaks out
* generate plugins into their own dir
only do plugins that support docs
use toctree from main plugins page
* Using docstrings conflicts with the standard use of docstrings
* PYTHON_OPTIMIZE=2 will omit docstrings. Using docstrings makes future
changes to the plugin and module code subject to the requirement that we
ensure it won't be run with optimization.

renamed constructed_groups as it now also constructs vars ... to constructed
moved most of constructed_groups logic into base class to easily share
