Changes to the metadata format were approved here:
https://github.com/ansible/proposals/issues/54
* Update documentation to the new metadata format
* 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
* Refactor dimensiondata_network to use shared base class for common functionality.
* Experiment: remove the assignments in the "except ImportError:" block that keep PyCharm happy. If this fixes the build, then I reckon there's a bug in the validate-modules script (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/devel/test/sanity/validate-modules/validate-modules#L322).
* Remove unused imports.
* Changes based on feedback from @gundalow for ansible/ansible#21043.
- Use no_log=True for mcp_password parameter.
- Collapse module parameter definitions.
* Use shared definitions and doc fragments for common module arguments (ansible/ansible#21043).
* Make default network plan "ESSENTIALS", rather than "ADVANCED" (this is consistent with our other tooling).
Tidy up module parameter documentation.
* Simplify dimensiondata module documentation fragments (didn't know you could include multiple fragments).
* Change 'verify_ssl_cert' module parameter to 'validate_certs'.
* Update validate-modules
* Validates ANSIBLE_METADATA
* Ensures imports happen after documentation vars
* Some pep8 cleanup
* Clean up some left over unneeded code
* Update modules for new module guidelines and validate-modules checks
* Update imports for ec2_vpc_route_table and ec2_vpc_nat_gateway
* Add dimensiondata_network module
* Remove shebang
* Use Python-2.4-compatible exception handling.
* Ok, add shebang back in.
* Add 'mcp_user' and 'mcp_password' parameters'.
As suggested by @abadger, these values will now be used for CloudControl credentials, but will fall back to existing behaviour (environment variables and dotfile).
* Minor fixes based on feedback for ansible/ansible#19325.
