* 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.
- better variable precedence management
- universal plugin option handling
- also updated comments for future directions
- leverage fragments for plugins
- removed fact namespacing
- added 'firendly name' field

- updated vars plugins to allow docs
- fixed 'gathering'
- only set options IF connection
- added path list and renamed pathspec mostly the diff is , vs : as separator

template/__init__.py imported unsafe_proxy from vars which caused
vars/__init__.py to load. vars/__init__.py needed template/__init__.py
which caused issues. Loading unsafe_proxy from another location fixes
that.
This fix ensures that if there are specific module errors (in our case
the python interpreter was not found) then command and shell returns a
proper error.
It also fixes a few other imperfections that we noticed during
troubleshooting:
- Return the real RC if it were available
- Improve a dictionary evaluation using .get()
- Return an RC of -1 if it is unknown (instead of returning 0)
This fixes#18846
