* Added support for defining the ServerSelection attribute of the update searcher session, which allows specifying non-default update server sources. This is useful if targeted systems have Windows Updates defaulted to WSUS or SCCM sources and we want to instead force searches to the online Windows Update catalog.
* fixed documentation formatting
* fixed documentation, added version_added info
* changed server_selection to a string value and refined documentation
* simplified parameter validation & result output, enhanced logging detail & documentation
This documents two common issues related to rebooting Windows systems.
- Updates can take a long time being applied during reboot
- Reboots can cause the WinRM service to start before system has settled
* win_update: Add post search category matching to support product matching
* win_updates: Return categories of each update
* win_updates: Documentation fix-up
* win_updates: Adjusted documentation to reflect regex vs sub-string match of post-cat strings
* win_updates: Sped up post-category checking
* win_updates: Updated documentation to suggest querying post-category strings
* win_updates: Simplified saving and checking post-categories
* fixed some issues and added filtered categories to return value
* win_updates: Moved all category matching to occur after initial search
* win_updates: Adjustments to satisfy PowerShell lint checks
* win_updates: Dropped category validation from action plugin
* win_updates: Documentation updates
* win_updates: Fixed plugin unit tests
* Windows: Add special parameter types
Adding explicit parameter types now exposes this information in the
module documentation, and proves really helpful.
We only do this for non-string types as strings, mostly because strings
are implicit.
PS We also make copyright statements consistent and use #Requires for
explicit library imports
* Type "string" must be type "str"
* A few more Copyright corrections
* More fixes
* Don't add file encoding to Powershell files
* Don't add missing interfacetypes parameter
Otherwise CI demands an incorrect version_added
* Small fix
* win_updates: add scheduled tasks back in for older hosts
* Fixed up typo in category name error message
* Fixed up some minor issues after merge
* added changelog fragment
* Default to become but add override to use scheduled tasks
* Added basic unit tests for win_updates
* fix minor typos

Not sure how Ansibullbot will handle an organization ID, but
other deprecated modules already use it.
